[I'M USING THE CRU TOOL]

My Asus VG248QE runs up to 144hz (1080p,720p...), when it's at 1080p@144hz the frecuency (or whatever the name is...) is 166.610 khz (~167khz) and the pixel clock is 346.55 Mhz.

SO, If I create a new custom resolucion in which:
1. The resolution is 1280x720
2. As the resolution is lower I am going to increase refresh rate from 144hz to more than 175hz maybe, because the pixel clock when is 720p@200hz (228.39 Mhz) is even lower than 1080p@144hz (346.55 Mhz), and the frecuency is also lower (158.604 khz).

3. So going from 1080p@144hz to 720p@200hz or 720p@175hz would be safe?

sorry for my english
I don't believe that is possible. Respecting the pixel clock limit is important, but it's only 1 element. I believe ToastyX recently wrote that the 144hz monitors can be OC'd slightly, but only to about 150hz

Ok
The VG248QE will not accept anything higher than 150 Hz, and it can't handle that properly at the native resolution.

It's possible to get 150 Hz at 1280x720 and 1600x900 with these timing parameters:

H: 1280 24 32 24 80 1360
V: 720 3 5 5 13 733

H: 1600 24 32 24 80 1680
V: 900 3 5 5 13 913
Sorry to resurrect this thread, will the pixel clock patcher allow a higher refresh rate?
No, the VG248QE will not accept refresh rates higher than 150 Hz.
You would have to disassemble the firmware and hack it to get more than 150hz.

The panel itself COULD be capable of it (the X-star DP2414 has been overclocked as high as 200 hz at 1920x1080, and it uses the same AUO panel), but you would have to get past the firmware lockout. If you want to risk bricking your monitor, you could try to disassemble the raw bin file in Linux if you know how. Otherwise, don't bother.
