I have a question about it. And if I overclock the monitor via the PC, does it only bring something for the PC or also if I go to HDMi 2 and then play on the Xbox?
Overclocking brings technological conflicts, not advantages.
Thanks for advising against it, but do you know if it only works on the PC or if I would overclock it via the PC and then use my Xbox on it.
It would be interesting for me to have an old monitor that I would like to test for something like that

Your answer is only partially correct. Technological conflicts only bring about if you exaggerate and that it does not bring any advantages is also not entirely true. It's just like a cpu. You have to go slowly and the difference won't be too big. Of course there are also screens that do not support this at all. And now for the rest: Xbox (except for the latest generation) basically only shows 30fps, regardless of whether you connect a 60hz or 144hz screen because it is regulated in the system (can also be fooled)
Do it, try is better than study. I think it's nonsense.
You can't overclock the monitor. That wouldn't help either, because the signal comes from the graphics card. And if the graphics card transmits the signals slowly, then a faster monitor is of no use to you. So much for the theory.
Overclocking the graphics card: An overclocking of 1% or 2% can only bring a maximum of 1% to 2%. And nobody notices that. Humans can detect changes of> 10%. He hardly notices anything below that. The electronics, however, notice this when the temperature rises. The manufacturer sets a limit value. This limit ensures that the product will work properly and survive. By overclocking you run the risk of your product dying.
If you want to make your PC faster, it is more advisable to accelerate the processor. The 10% rule only applies here. However, I don't think you can overclock more than 10% anywhere. If that were possible, you could clock up faster. But even a PC is so intelligently designed that it can query the assemblies as to which speeds are supported. And so he always uses the maximum permissible speed at the respective points. You shouldn't disturb that to have a stable running PC.
HDMI is an interface description. All parameters are fixed here and must not be changed. Otherwise connected devices would no longer work.
Maybe now you understand why your idea is not a good idea!
The same question would be whether it will do anything if I drive an engine in the red speed range…
Just think about it! With a little substance between your ears, you can quickly and easily come up with a nice little NO!
Thank you for your helpful and detailed answer, I overclocked the monitor so that it broke, everything worked fine for the first few days, but then it remained black.
