BenQ UNIVERSAL 144Hz->220Hz OVERCLOCK for 1080p 144 Hz

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.

when i first get into game it says that configuration changed
Not sure what do you mean by that, but if it doesn't fix OOR automatically, then either it fails to detect that something happened with display, or you need to increase the timings via OOR Buster's launch parameters.

Registered to say thx. XL2411P 200hz at 1920 1080 and with 1280 720. Forced 200hz in CSGO and Quake Champions (Sorry, looks like -freq command doesnt work in steam Quake Champions version, i can use 200hz,but i have to set desktop resolution to 1280 720 first,but 1920x1980 200hz works perfect without any problems) via Steam Launch options. Since my pc cant provide more fps than 220-240 in this games i did not tryed more.
Using OOR 1.3

Is overclocking affect on delay ? since this monitor 1ms *in description*? Sorry for my English guys, Im from Russla.

Hi, I dont really now if its worth it of overclocking my XL2430T, I pverclocked from 144hz to 210hz. Is there an increase in energy output that harms the components in this model of zowie? How much is the lifespan of the monitor affected by doing this overclock? Appreciate any answer ❤️

Any way to apply the overclock on a XL2411P without using a second display? Also has anyone faced any issues overclocking these panels long term?

hello, I overclocked my benq xl2411 to 240Hz, but the problem is that only half of the screen is normal, on the other side there are small artifacts and the text becomes unreadable. Has anyone faced the same problem? I think this can be fixed because that one half of the screen is working fine.

I guess you have to turn off AMA at monitor menu settings :arrow:

no, unfortunately it didn't help. I tried different monitor settings but it didn't work. I also tried setting timings from extension blocks (cru), but that didn't help either: (Any other ideas? I think I somehow need to change the timings that are responsible for the right half of the monitor, but I don't know how to do it. P.S I have v-sync turned off, gsync.

You may have exceeded the capabilities of the panel.
Try 200hz, 210hz and 220hz. If those all work and 240hz fails to work, you found your answer. Not every screen is capable of being stable at such high refresh rates.

so why is it that sometimes my XL2720Z is stable with no frameskipping at 240 or 250hz but other times when i switch to those refresh rates, the strobe crosstalk test shows this annoying judder? the judder does now show in the Strobe Utlity's Crosstalk test though.

Check my other posts on this matter.
It means the exact timings used are not stable to the monitor scalar.
If you want the same refresh rate, you will need to mess with changing the horizontal and vertical total values, which will change the pixel clock slightly, but keep the same refresh rate. You have to mess around with it and find a HT/VT combination that will not cause frameskipping.
