Monitor overclocking, I need answers ;A;

Since Google does not help me finding my answers, I come here for some trustworthy advise.

 

I have a laptop at the moment (G751JY) with a pretty good 75Hz Gsync monitor on it.

Now, I tried overclocking it, and came out at a solid 100Hz.

 

Obviously my question that follows is, is it "safe" to leave it at these numbers?

Tried a few tests and it stays stable for the time that i tested it (used a webpage as well (http://www.testufo.com/#test=framerates) and it stays "Valid" for all the time I have it open.

 

Main concern is, does the lifespan of the monitor degrade if i use it at 100Hz, and if so, any estimates of how much?

 

I know these are pretty much guess work questions, but if someone has experience in overclocking monitors and lifespan, I would gladly read it.

traditionally overclocking CRTs could cause damaged since the ray gun has to move faster and mess with the magnet alignments and such. I'm not sure because LCD do not operate the same way.

 

I think LCD overclocking is mostly BS, either the monitor supports those refresh speeds or it doesn't. It may be locked or turnned off from the manufacture, but the monitor controller (chip) isn't being overclocked, just more bandwidth is used.

Hmm, interesting, what about temperatures?

Does making it operate at higher refresh-rates increase temperatures in any way?

That I do not know. It would be interesting to find out using a FLIR camera.
