Better yet buy a new fast Hz monitor, they don't have to cost that much.

I don't think you can break a monitor by trying for higher resolutions. it will either work, or not work.

The worst-case scenario is you get your PC stuck in a mode that the monitor can't handle, at which point you need to use safe mode and fully uninstall the monitor from device manager.

Most 60Hz LCD's will OC to 70-75Hz. I overclocked 3 of them. Never had any issues.
and nothing happened to the screens ?

Nothing will happen physically to the monitor. It'll just not accept the signal.

I've never heard of anyone killing their monitor. Like @kayjay010101 says, it will just not accept the signal and either display a message saying "signal out of range" or show a scrambled/distorted image.

if I do it have more electricity on the screen it isn't problem?

Can confirm, also overclocked a bunch of monitors. Works on most of them and if it doesnt, the screen will simply not work but won't get damaged. The CRU program usually used for this has a nice utility to reset to defaults and as other have said, when all else fails you can just uninstall the monitor via safe more.

If it is an option for you, I'd use a 2nd monitor (as your main monitor for the duration of testing) so that you can use that monitor to reset the monitor you are overclocking in case it won't show an image. Can save you a lot of hassle, if it's an option ofc.

so if I do from 60hz to 80hz-90hz I can be relax and don't worry about bad thinks?

I'd try to overclock in small steps only, and poweruse will probably not noticeably change, or at most in a very minor way.

Yes, indeed. Makes like a LOT easier.

S24D300 supposedly clocks to 72 or 75Hz based on a (very) quick forum search.
After applying any overclock it's important to check for frame-skipping, I use testufo.com for that sort of thing.
