While I don't think it's a huge problem or even a common one I have experience to the contrary. In the past few months I have replaced three 21" Sony Monitors that were run 10 -15 hz faster than their rated redresh rate. So at a cost of Four Thousand Dollars out of my pocket it's not an experience I will forget. I'm not blaming anyone but ourselves for not reading the manuals. Our older Sony's will run the same resolution and refresh rate just fine. So I'm not trying to scare anyone but I can tell you that it can and does happen.
