resolution/refresh question

I got a viewsonic A90f+ on sale for $229 last week. Like it fine, but at higher resolutions, like 1152x864, when I up the refresh rate to 75H, I get a little flicker on the left side of the screen. I have to scale back to 60H to get rid of it. Here's my question: does my video card have any relation to this? I'm asking because I'm about to upgrade the whole system, including video card, and I'm wondering if a new video card will allow me to up the refresh to 75H without the flicker. I'm guessing no but thought I'd check with the gurus first. Thanks!
 
no laughing please (as I said, I'm about to rebuild):

celeron 333 overclocked at 400

abix BX6 mobo
some memory 😀

anything else of relevance you wanted to know?


Also - a followup question..... in playing around with the settings, I was able to set the refresh rate to 80H, and the flicker is now gone. However, the monitor in theory only supports up to 75H. Am I going to hurt it setting it to 80? Reduce the life or anything?

Thanks again
