Will using custom resolution utility work for me?
My laptop screen is 60 hz. I connected my laptop to my tv by using an hdmi cable. My tv is Sony Bravia kdl-43w660f and its refresh rate is 60 hz.
I discovered a program called custom resolution utility and you can use it to overclock the refresh rate of your screens. I want to overclock my refresh rate from 60 hz to 75 hz. I ran the program. https://i.imgur.com/8dxc0sR.jpg is what I see for the laptop screen and https://i.imgur.com/hKXPCvs.jpg is what I see for the tv. What should I do next?
I think I have to click the add under detailed resolution and I create a new line which is 1920 x 1080 75 hz and then I move that line to the top and I have to do that for both the laptop screen and the tv. Am I correct?
After that I have to close the program and I run restart.exe and restart64.exe to restart the graphics driver or I can restart the pc.
I have some concerns and they are:-
1) If I set both the laptop screen and the tv to 75 hz then will I actually get 75 hz on the tv? Is there any way I can convert 60 hz refresh rate to 120hz? - Quora says that you can't change the refresh rate of the tv from 60 hz to 120 hz because the tv panel is 60 hz so I am unsure if the tv can get overclocked to 75 hz.
2) I am worried that things can screw up and I get a black screen. How do I undo the changes that I did if I have problems? I run reset-all.exe while the laptop is in safe mode and I delete the new rows that I created and then I delete the program and then I restart the laptop?
3) Will my games run ok on 75 hz and the graphics won't get distorted? Some games only support 60 fps and I will be running them on 75 fps.
4) My laptop has an Intel graphics card and an Nvidia graphics card. Will overclocking the refresh rate happen under the Intel graphics card or under the Nvidia graphics card? If it happens under the Intel graphics card then can I run games on 75 fps on the Nvidia graphics card?
