    Hi guys,

    I actually wanted to know whether any of you succeeded to overclock their Aero's refresh rate.
    Just received my Gigabyte Aero 15 X and i'm really satisfied with it except the 60hz refresh rate.
    I always played with an Asus 144hz monitor and It feels pretty weird to play at 60hz

    I successfully overclocked monitors in the past without any problems but this one crashes at soon as it's overclocked with CRU (tried 65hz only).

    Another weird thing is that this "Intel HD settings panel" doesn't work with any "custom resolutions" option.

    I've tried to change the refresh rate at Full HD & 30hz and then 50hz and it says something like "The custom resolution exceeds the maximum bandwidth capacity." which is absolutely wrong.
    That intel software is absolutely full of bugs and i'm using the last version of it.
