today i discovered that awesomely, i could overclock my cheap TN laptop monitor which his default frequency ( and max according to windows ) is 60hz
i could easily go beyond 200hz ( without hardware modding ), the max i reach is about 210hz, after that it was black with a white stripe scan pattern (i can send screenshots as a proof) thought there were some artifacts
As i said it surely might be in the best case 5ms GTG monitor screen, so monitors manufacturers deliberaly flange their vertical frequency
my question is : does all monitors could be modded in a way to remove this "hardware" (if it could be called like this) limit ? ( as cirthix did )
if a 5ms GTG laptop or worse could go beyond 200hz, i dont know why there's this 144hz boundary for 1ms GTG ! ( maybe for warranty/pixel artifacts ? )
it would help a lot for old fast paced games which high fps isnt uncommon, coupled with a decent strobing, it would require less strobe brightness for the same persistence
OMG (jaw drop) -- this is true 180Hz. You're not frame skipping!lol37 wrote:here are videos, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ODFZknRK1I ( 180hz )
I just took a frame grab of this YouTube, and yep, true 180Hz. No frame skipping. Your laptop LCD is displaying 180Hz.
And your 200Hz overclock works too (Even though testufo failed before the display did!)
