It is connected to a RTX 2060 super GPU via DVI SL cable.

The DVI port on the monitor has the holes for Dual Link DVI but i coudnt find anywhere information about if the port is actual DL or not , i only have SL-DVI cable atm.
Some variation of this monitor model with the same specs have display port too and thats what makes me think maybe the DVI port could be DL.
Found a similar monitor that its rated at 75hz and it says that the DVI is dual link: https://www.displaydb.ro/monitor/acer-v246hl-bmdp
My model is v246hl bmd UM.FV6EE.005

I have some questions/ problems.
Does it worth getting a DL-DVI cable for it? (im OC-ing the monitor ofc)

I tried the patcher and it doesnt seem to make any difference, the max clock seems to be @ ~165.6Mhz, going any higher i am getting "Input is not supported".

I managed to OC it to 75HZ with this settings"
H: 32 32 32 96 2016
V: 3 4 4 11 1091

The problem is that i am getting a lot of tearing in games when i am using it at 75Hz but it seems that is working without tear at stock 60hz.

There's no reason for that monitor to have dual-link DVI. The patcher is for GPU driver limitations, not monitor limitations. Tearing has nothing to do with the monitor or the timing parameters. Use vsync if you don't want tearing.
