I successfully overclocked my Acer 24" 1080p 60 Hz monitor to 75 Hz. everything seemed perfectly smooth, so I opened up battlefield 4 to see how I liked 75 Hz. i joined a game but lagged out of it almost immediately. i did a speed test and noticed i was getting like 20 kbps! when i turned off the overclock BOOM I was back to 16 Mbps! what gives?!

specs:

z77 pro3 MOTHERBOARD
hd 7950 gigabyte GPU
600w collermaster PSU
i5 3570k @4.6 Ghz (liquid cooled) CPU

any help will be greatly appreciated! 😀
 


believe me, I know it sounds insane, but i've changed it back and forth from 60 to 75 Hz and it keeps dropping insanely low at 75! could it be power related? motheboard?
