I just got a Samsung 931BW (19" 1440x900 widescreen) and was slightly mislead by the advertisement of 1440x900/75Hz. Currently on my 9200SE it does 1440x900 @ 60 Hz, it only hits 75Hz at lower resolutions. Is it possible (and safe) to force the refresh rate higher on this monitor? Are there any 19" monitors that support 1440x900 @ 75 Hz?

I can't really complain too much, this monitor is sick candy.

LCDs are not like CRTs when it comes to refresh rates. Forcing it to operate out of spec can cause it to fail sooner rather than later.
