This all happens without any visible effects or any increase in the dropped frames/display glitches counters. Interestingly the clock deviation statistic does not seem to change along with the display rate change. I am not using ReClock.
Lowering display refresh rate is a fairly common power management feature of laptop GPUs. Try to disable power management options in your GPU drivers. If you have an Optimus system (Intel + nVidia combined), you might have more luck looking into the Intel GPU driver options.
