Ok, I'm a bit of an idiot when it comes to matters like these, but I just noticed my refresh rate is 60 Hertx, but I can set it up to 75. Should I do it? I made it that for a few seconds and nothing too special happened... does it increases performance or what? Would it hurt my eyes?

it would do the exact opposite,it would help your eyes.

I set mine one setting below the max load my monitor can take.

Go to your nvidia settings and uncheck V-sync and your refresh rate wont be locked to your monitor settings in fullscreen mode.
