Night and day difference with 60 to 144hz allows allows for players with mice that can do 1000hz to see a smoother result.

140 to 240 isn't as noticeable but I have played on both and you can tell when flicking your mouse how much smoother the flick is.

I have a 1080ti and still have everything disabled or low, to make sure I stay well above 144 fps. I have a 240hz, I would need a better CPU to keep it above 240 but running constantly at or above 144 is the goal for now. The almost $750 upgrade to get a better CPU is not worth the gain from 144 to 240.

I thought we were finally heading in the right direction when gamers stopped worrying about how beautiful a game looks like. It's about how it plays, drop your settings and play a FPS, this isn't a sims game.

This allows your game to stay at 144FPS.
This solution may help you. I use a GTX 1070TI, i5-9600K with 16GB DDR3200.
I set everything on low because you can see the enemies much better with low settings. Give it a try.
