Hey, so I have wanted a 144hz monitor for a while and I settled on the Acer GN246HL Bbid 24-inch monitor, but on the review on Youtube it said that your system would need to be able to support 144hz gaming. I was wondering if my pc could handle that.

Processor:AMD FX-4300 3.80GHZ Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT720 1GB

If you want to buy the monitor, buy it, if your system can't handle running what you play at 144hz, run it at 60 till you can upgrade. Or spend the money yo would on the monitor for a faster video card and CPU.

Although not great for games, an FX 6300 along with something like a Radeon RX 560 or nVidia GTX 1050 or 1050 Ti would be a lot faster than your system, then you can upgrade the monitor later.

If you are running games on 720p there is pretty much 0 need to upgrade to a better monitor since you are not even going to be using 1/2 of what the monitor can do.

If you're going to shell out for a 144 Hz monitor, you need to have a GPU that can actually take advantage of it. For 1440p 60 Hz or higher-framerate 1080p, you're talking something like a GTX 1070. A GT 720 is a basic, non-gaming GPU, intended mainly for light office work/web surfing, especially when the CPU doesn't have an integrated GPU (the 4300 is in that category).

For non-gaming, there's no real purpose for a 144 Hz monitor, outside of things like doing 3D rendering (which you probably wouldn't be doing on this kind of build anyway).
