Hi there, I;m not to knowledgeable about computers and such so I made an acc. on here to see if you guys can give me some direction on this.

Will it be worth it for me pick up the 144hz Asus VG248qe monitor while running a GTX 570?

Is the card strong enough?
Ps: I Mainly played Call of Duty: Ghosts and some World of Warcraft
My Card: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130595

Thank you in advance for the reply. Cheers.

You can definitely take advantage of the 144hz for sure. That wont make or break your gaming experience. However, you won't be able to play on high settings, well you can but I don't think you will enjoy it too much. You should be okay with the default settings in ghosts. Hope your other specs are good!

Thanks for the reply. My other main specs are : 3rd Gen i5 ( 3500 or w/e) and 8 gigs ram.

I mean as long as I get that "smoother gaming experience" I hear and read about. I see your runnin a 650ti, thats gotta be close to my card, you runnin a 120hz? If so how is it?

Higher refresh rates means higher fps that your monitor can produce. But only if your card can only go up to 60 fps, you will be seeing 60hz. Most people cant tell the difference between 90hz and 144hz.

Thanks for the info, is there a way I can test my card in game to see if it would be worth it get a 144hz? Like a setting I can try to run ingame or something? I run all my games with vsync off and in most cases I can get anywhere from 150-250
