Overclocking your monitor increases your refresh rate, which can ultimately improve the smoothness of your overall experience. Overclocking a monitor is simple to do, and in this mini-guide, we will cover how to overclock your monitor, as well as the benefits and risks that go along with it.

The main risk with overclocking is reducing the lifespan of the monitor itself. It should only reduce the lifespan a short amount, but basically, an increase in the monitors refresh rate requires a faster current which will increase the energy output.

Understanding the benefits is just understanding what a refresh rate is. Your monitors refresh rate is how many times per second the image is refreshed and often 60Hz is enough. But with higher-powered graphics cards comes higher frame rates. When your frame rate on your GPU is out of sync with your refresh rate (60Hz +120 FPS), you can get a screen tear resulting in a jittery experience. So, increasing your refresh rate to match as close as you can with your frame rate, you can eliminate some of this.

From a safety and security viewpoint, you should always use a screen lock along with some form of biometric authentication on your Android device to prevent anyone else from accessing it. However, there can be situations where you want to double down on security and hide an installed app from prying eyes.

Some Android phones allow you to natively hide installed apps. In case the feature is not present in your phone, you can use a third-party launcher like Nova or Microsoft Launcher.

As you’d expect, Discord offers a bunch of keyboard shortcuts. Expert users rely on them a lot; if you’re involved in lots of simultaneous chats, you need to be able to bounce between them quickly.

One of the best ways to ensure the security of your Discord account is to turn on 2FA. When enabled, you’ll need to add an extra numerical code generated by a phone app or dongle every time you log in.

Before diving in, let’s take a quick moment to clear up the differences between two-factor authentication and two-step authentication. They’re similar, but not identical.

Two-factor authentication is when you protect an account with two different types of authorization methods. A factor can be one of the following:

• Something you know: This includes a piece of information, like a password or security question.
• Something you have: For example, your smartphone or another physical device.
• Something you are: A factor unique to your body, such as your fingerprint or iris.

True two-factor authentication means you must unlock two checks from different factors before you can log in. If your account is protected by two locks of the same factor, this is called two-step authentication.

Compared to reaching for the mouse or navigating a menu, a single keyboard shortcut shaves a moment off your task. This might not seem like much, but add up all those saved moments over a week or a month, and you’re gaining a substantial chunk of time.

The iPhone and iPad come with Apple’s own Safari web browser, but now Apple introduced a default browser selection feature in iOS 14 and iPadOS 14. When you set a third-party browser as the default, the operating system will always use it for browser-related tasks.
