    Hi all,


    Ive got a Compaq FP7317 TFT monitor running at default 1280x1024 60hz atm.

    When playing games like black hawk down, when i turn quick it goes a bit ghosty.

    can i up the TFT to 75hz and not overdrive it and damage it?
    last time i tryed i had a few dots appear that i could tap and they would go.

    usually if dots appereared, that meant that you were pushing the monitor pass spec

    suggestion: play games at 1024-768 75hz
