I still need to read some older replies, but I can't resist to answer OT
now.
I'm a dino and trillions years ago it was possible to set up X by trial
and error. One step after the other I never damaged hardware. If
frequencies get to high, I saw "lines" and heard noise, from hardware
that shouldn't make noise.
Today X don't allow you to go the trial and error way and X calculators
only provide international common monitors.
