Find the ModeLine in your XF86Config for your 1024x768 screen. The first number is the pixel clock (dot clock). Multiply it by (85/75) and everything else scales in proportion. Just make sure you are still within the sync range of your monitor. If you haven't got a Modeline run xvidtune and copy the numbers into one: ModeLine "1024x768" "dotclock h hsyncstart hsyncend htotal v vsyncstart vsyncend vtotal" (names might be slightly off but ordering is OK) see man XF86Config for more on modelines.
