Moniter flickering after "overclocking" monitor

Moniter flickering after "overclocking" monitor
« on: December 23, 2014, 07:52:27 am »
Hello!
Title is pretty self explanatory but let me give you a rundown.

I have used the Gigabyte OC guru monitor overclocking option to overclock my monitor when suddenly my screen went black and started flickering. Before overclocking everything was fine. Now everytime that I use my gfx card, my screen starts flickering black and gray, and it forces me to use my onboard graphics.
Please help!

My specs are:
Monitor: Samsung SyncMaster S22B300 (Tried overclocking from 50Hz to 60Hz)
Intel Core I-7 4790k [Stock speed]
Gigabyte Geforce GTX-970 G1 Gaming Soc edition [Stock speed] (was using Hdmi to DVI cable)
16 Gb of RAM
650W power-supply
