It's fine but 144hz is considerably better.

60 Hz is the standard for gaming and is plenty good for anybody but the "refresh rate fanboys."

Its ok...  But competetively i would say 144hz is the way to go.  It's fine in most cases but once you go higher than 60hz it's so good it makes it hard to go back.

i would say it depends on the types of games you like to play. If you like fast paced games like doom or csgo (or fps'ses in general) you should go for 144. If you play mostly rpg's, grand strategy or puzzles, i would go with 60 since you'll save money, and then you can get a better quality image!

Unless you're into competitive gaming, 60Hz is perfectly fine. Not to mention that it's far easier to run a game locked at 60FPS opposed to 144FPS, so in theory if heat output and power draw matters massively, you can benefit on that front.

It depends on what you play. I dont know what a "refresh rate fanboy" is as some as I've heard some stupid people say before, but 60 Hz is just not good for shooters.
