Hi,
I can't set refresh rate to 75Hz both in Gnome display properties and in Nvidia panel. So i have it stuck at 60Hz.
I've tried several solutions i found on forums but none of them worked
Here is my xorg.conf :
# nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig
# nvidia-xconfig: version 1.0 (buildmeister@builder63) Tue Jan 6 10:03:02 PST 2009

Keep in mind, that 75Hz is maximum for Samsung SyncMaster 932 BF. The higher resolution the lower refresh rate can be used. Do not expect 75Hz at 1280*1024. My BenQ has max 60Hz with this resolution.
And by the way: it is an LCD display, so why bother with vertical refresh rate?

1st : It runs perfectly fine at 1280x1024@75Hz in Windows XP/Vista, so there is no reason it shouldn't work in Linux. In Nvidia-panel there is even the 75Hz option in the drop-down list when resolution is 1280x1024.
2nd : It isn't easy on the eyes at 60Hz compared to 75Hz, even more when i play games (Quake 3 for example).
