in some games but for 144HZ gaming you are better off with a 1660ti or 1070

What game? What resolution? What detail settings?

 

Looks like you're on a laptop...only one way to find out. Those aren't upgradeable.

Fortnite, CSGO, etc.. 1920x1080 maybe low-medium.

Well, for Fortnite. All low I can reach up to 240 FPS.

A potato could run CS:GO at 144Hz these days. I'd be inclined to say maybe/maybe not on Fortnite at those settings, leaning more towards 120Hz than 144 though. Like I said above, if you're on a laptop, there's no upgrading, so you might as well just try it.

Would it be a smart move if I installed a 120hz panel into my laptop? Instead of investing money into a 144hz monitor?

Considering his CPU that's a laptop he's talking about.

If you decrease graphical settings to the lowest it's likely you can get close to the 144hz margin, the CPU is capable of it to my understanding.

No, not even a little bit. A 144Hz monitor can be used over and over again. A 120Hz panel is bound to that laptop for life, installing it voids your warranty, and if you screw something up in the process of installing it, you're straight-up boned.

100% agree with @aisle9. That 144Hz can be used for future systems or be sold again once you're done with it. Also most 144Hz monitors can be set to other frequencies as well. Mine for instance can do 60Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz and 144Hz.

Some even go higher, my 144Hz G-Sync monitor goes up to 180Hz (there's options for 160, 170, and 180Hz in the monitor settings themselves, and it does indeed run that refresh rate) so you may be able to run it even higher if you get better hardware in the future.
