The power supply unit in a PC does not usually supply the monitor - that is taken directly from the main and bypasses the PSU at the connectors on the back of the case.

More likely the monitor needs to be calibrated/adjusted.

The refresh rates etc can be adjusted within Windows - right click Desktop - Properties - Settings - Advanced - Monitor.

Some stuff here about voltages:

Another possibility i sthat the core voltage for the processor needs to be changed - but approach that with caution.

Suggest you read the monitor manual and take professional advice before you change anything.
