Why does 60hz look so bad on a 144hz monitor?

The first thing is screen tearing. If you have higher FPS than your monitor's refresh rate, and you have VSync disabled, then the monitor displays several different images in a single refresh cycle. So the top of the screen will be a different screen than the lower part.

Can you get 300 fps on a 144hz monitor?
It can't get higher frame rates as it's lacking good hardware. So basically if you try to run the same game on a 144Hz monitor nothing's gonna change. It'll still run at 40FPS. The 144Hz monitor is only useful when your hardware supports 100+ frame rates, so that the games will run smoother.

What happens if you use a 144hz monitor for ps5?
Not only is 144Hz good, it's the “right” refresh rate for PS5 owners. While the PS5 tops out at 120fps, 144Hz is a standard maximum refresh rate for gaming monitors. Unlike resolution, monitors can run at any framerate under that cap, so any 144Hz monitor will show 120Hz gameplay without any issues.

Does a 144hz monitor improve graphics?
For example, if your display has a refresh rate of 144Hz, it is refreshing the image 144 times per second. When paired with the high frame rates produced by a GPU and CPU working together, this can result in a smoother experience and potentially higher FPS.

Can you see 240 fps on a 144hz monitor?
“Yes , you can get 240 fps on a 144HZ monitor.. Simple answer: Yes, but 96 of the FPS will be wasted. The monitor can only display 144 FPS, but your game can run at 240FPS, it isn't a problem. FPS is given by the GPU - yes you can get 240 in the screen.”
