So with NVIDIA's Control Panel I was only able to extract 3 extra hz before it goes into Out of Range. Is there anything I can do to mitigate this?

Most monitors have "out of range" watchguards that trigger very shortly above Hz.

It often requires monitor hacking to defeat the "out of range" watchguards, such as the rare discovery of the BenQ overclocking tricks.

Is it normal that no of them work while using a XL2411P connected to a RX580 via DP?
6bcp 1600x900 sub 264mhz pixel clock still goes out of range, even with hlVeqqs OOrBuster or softMCCS.

For XL2411P -- don't do too many things at the same time. Begin with 1920x1080 first, before attempting simultaneous scaling and overclocking.

i have a question

even if you could disable the out of range message
does that heart the display in the long run?
