Samsung G7 480Hz OC

Talk about overclocking displays at a higher refresh rate. This includes homebrew, 165Hz, QNIX, Catleap, Overlord Tempest, SEIKI displays, certain HDTVs, and other overclockable displays.

It seems there is pixel skipping and it may not be hitting a true 480hz but I don't think it tells the full story, freesync is working and the experience feels significantly better than 240/244(Oc no skipping) with vsync turned off. Its an interesting thing to look into if anyone has the means to do a proper comparison.
I will continue to use the overclock for competitive games, its definitely not placebo even if it may not be true 480hz

Samsung Odyssey G7 Variant. They also revealed their G7 variants at the convention as well. These monitors come with the same beefy specs as the G9 version As it pertains to LG Display, it plans to develop 480Hz panels (1080p) before the end of 2021, and then begin producing them late next year.

Sometimes, frameskipped 480 Hz can have a latency-reducing QFT effect for 240Hz.

If you can do 480 Hz, I bet you might be able to do 240 Hz QFT. 240Hz refresh cycles transmitted to the monitor in 1/480sec.

However, it might still be slow-scanning them onto the screen.

But it might mean that the next refresh cycle (new 1/480sec frame) may get pre-delivered to the monitor for the monitor to begin refreshing after the current refresh cycle, if the monitor is executing a low-lag triple buffer algorithm (monitor-side triple buffering).

There are occasionally sometimes unexpected benefits of a 2x overclock that frameskips, because of other side effects such as quick frame transport (240Hz refresh cycles transmitted in 1/480sec).

A slight overclock frameskip is terrible, but a double-Hz cable-only overclock that frameskips, has some indirect benefits that may show up in certain monitor modes in reducing processing time for certain sync technologies by delivering the frame faster from the computer to monitor, if the monitor is running its own frame processing queue.

This won't benefit bufferless (only rolling window buffer) zero-lag esports panels with real time scanout sync. But may benefit panels that have to buffer anyway (processing, HDR, VRR, etc). Since the frame delivers into the monitor internal framebuffer processing queue sooner. Many VA panels have a buffer processing delay, and sometimes quick frame transport signals reduce this specific type of lag especially if your overclock is a double-Hz type for a cleaner stutter-free frameskip.

What settings in the monitor and what resolution settings do you use to get this even to 300Hz?
