i have a 120hz so let me share a few things.

on the desktop side, things will be smoother. on the gaming side it will also be smoother, given that your rig can push the frames. Let us say you play bf4 and set things to ultra, then you will not see any difference. to be able to see it, ideally your fps should be 144. if it can push 100, depending on your eyes, it should be smoother than 60

144Hz just means it can show 144FPS (Frames Per Second).

However, most games can't reach this without reducing the quality. It varies COMPLETELY from game to game.

You don't want to drop below the target refresh rate (i.e 144FPS) or you get synch stutter issues. If you enable Adaptive VSYNC then it just turns off VSYNC if you drop below 144FPS but then you get screen tearing.

LOOK AT BENCHMARKS for a GTX760 to find what frame rates you can get out of most games. See any above 144FPS?

*My advice looking at your budget is THIS:
1) Get an Asus GTX770 instead (about $320), and
2) Get a cheaper 60Hz monitor. Still a nice monitor for $200 or so but just not 144Hz.

OTHER:
If you want a really awesome experience then consider getting one of the Asus G-Sync monitors for about $400 once released. A little more expensive but so worth it.

Here's a few links:
http://www.geforce.com/hardware/technology/g-sync (*Watch the product demo video)

http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/hardware-canucks-reviews/64586-week-nvidias-g-sync-monitor.html

Most people don't understand how significant G-Sync is. You really need to try it. Basically the graphics card tells the monitor when to update which makes gaming much smoother, and avoids the hassle of trying to stay above a target refresh, or suffering the cons below.

It also reduces LAG significantly especially at lower refresh rates.

*You can set a game to 40FPS by using G-Force Experience (defaults to optimal settings for 40FPS) which should be really smooth, or manually tweak a little higher.

supporting an 144hz monitor while gaming means that you have to score average fps greater than 60hz and play with out any screen tearing and need of vsync. with that gpu you can do that on several titles assuming your other specs are also capable. on games that support higher hz than 60 you will experience a smoother gameplay.

How will it look with games that score under 60 fps?

scoring under 60fps you will see any noticable difference on gaming and better stick with an 60hz monitor. for exaple. i have the benq 2024t and i can do 90-100fps on grid 2 and looks fantastic and silky smooth but on assasins creed black flag which is sadly a console port i can barely achieve 35-55 average and the result is not even close.well those new g sync monitors maybe pretty good but are still rather expensive.

So what kind of monitor would you recomend with a nvidia 760? 60hz or 144hz? I might sli another 760 in the future.

if you have 280$ to spend on a monitor go with the asus, it is a good one and will experience the difference yourself since you will be able to push really good fps with many games and will always have the oppertunity for even better with a future upgrade.:)

again, you would have to hit high fps to take advantage of it. depending on how sensitive your eyes are, for me for example, i don't think my eyes can notice any diff of 60 vs 80. but if it reaches say 90 and above, then i do notice that it is smoother.

just lower the settings if you want it smooth, or build a better rig
