i have a asusvg249qm which can go up to 280hz but i am running at 240hz because it says to go to 280hz i need to overclock it in the monitors osd. is it safe to oc it cause im afraid it would shorten its lifespan or damage it and i cant afford to buy a new monitor as of now
 
Solution
if its advertised as 280, it should be safe to run it at that speed.

its like mine, sort of. had to change a setting in monitor to actually run at 144. Its just it defaults to a slower speed from factory.
