How to change the refresh rate to 75Hz from 60Hz?

This is my current monitor: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B015510R4M/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 AOC G2460VQ6 24 inch LED Gaming Monitor (75 Hz, Display Port, HDMI, VGA, Anti-Blue Light, Adaptive Sync/Freesync Compatible)

Which as you can see runs at 75Hz, however my graphics card refresh rate is 60Hz, from what I understand if you have 75Hz over 60Hz you get a smoother image, however couldn't manage to change this to 75?

Hopefully as seen by the attachment I get a very limited choice between 59-60 Hz, and was wondering if I could change this to 75? Cheers.

PC Specs:

i3 6100

HD 530 Intel's Integrated GPU

2x4gb 2133 RAM

250GB SSD

(Just put in the important ones)

Hello Callum:

 

 

The resolutions supported by the Intel® i3-6100 are the following:

 

 

Max Resolution (HDMI 1.4): 4096x2304@24Hz

 

Max Resolution (DP): 4096x2304@60Hz

 

Max Resolution (eDP - Integrated Flat Panel): 4096x2304@60Hz

 

 

The maximum resolution is at 60Hz, 75Hz is not supported by the processor.

 

 

You can confirm that information on the following link:
