While this is true for most modern monitors, it does not necessarily
hold for old (1980ish) monitors. Some of them *can* be damaged very
quickly by using the wrong frequency. 

Usually these monitors have a note stating the right frequency, but
sometimes it is on the inner case. Check if you can find it, otherwise
I would just try it out and take the risk.
