Use Displayport if your monitor and graphicscard supports it.

Should I use a HDMI 1.4 Highspeed cable or a Displayport 1.2 cable for playing in 144hz on my Asus Vg248qe?

Either cable will work fine, though I'd go with the display port just to be safe.

The monitor also has Dual-link DVI-D which should also support 1080p 144Hz.

Specs: CPU - Intel i7 8700K @ 5GHz | GPU - Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming | Motherboard - ASUS Strix Z370-G WIFI AC | RAM - XPG Gammix DDR4-3000MHz 32GB (2x16GB) | Main Drive - Samsung 850 Evo 500GB M.2 | Other Drives - 7TB/3 Drives | CPU Cooler - Corsair H100i Pro | Case - Fractal Design Define C Mini TG | Power Supply - EVGA G3 850W

does HDMI even do 1080 144? or is that the new version? anyhow, DVi and display port are the only ones you really want to use
