Hi guys,
Which of you could help me to overclock this fantastic monitor?
I've heard that arrives with no problems at 75 hz ... but I'm not able!

thanks

hey andrea89....as far as I know pixel-clocking is always going to reduce the life of your monitor...especially if you push it....

sa950d is a TN monitor, MX series is IPS. [Samsung also don't make IPS, they make PVA.]

Pixel overclocking introduces elements like ghosting, can generate wrong colors being displayed and does indeed reduce monitor lifespan.

wei friend!
Mx299q = default 2560x1080 @ 60hz (I get used to that), I do not want to damage the monitor
Thank you so much of the advice guys!



You could you advise me of the setting appropriate?
or link some discussion this fantastic monitor?

Thank you and good day

Just plug it into HDMI and it should auto-detect. 🙂
