So maybe my eyes can't detect it on a monitor But I have a asus 144hz monitor and it looks no different from 60hz when I change to 144hz. But when im at a store I can tell if a tv is 120hz vs 60hz

That's not the Toasty Strobelight test ... that tells me that you have it set at 144 Hz, not that it's operating at 144 Hz. Toasty Strobelight makes all the difference tho it's setup at 120 hz

Look at the videos and stuff here to **see** the difference

Like 120hz monitors at frys or tiger direct look very smooth but mine doesn't and te games don't seem to be any diffrent from my old 60hz monitor

Well in games you have to have the graphics power to be able to push frame rates above 60 fps or you wont see the extra frames. In general use you should notice it just by moving your mouse or a open window around the desktop.
 


Well I tried the ufo and it confirmed it at 144hz I guess 120hz tvs just look smoother or maybe I need a better media player to benefit from the 144hz Honestly I don't see a difference I still get blurs even during a slow pan.
 


Your media will only display as high as the source material is. The blur you see in movies is there in the file itself, which is likely 24FPS as well.

If you're looking to improve the smoothness of a video, and have a powerful CPU you should look into Smooth Video Project. It is real time frame interpolation, creating extra frames boosting a video's refresh rate. 60Hz is easily achievable for videos, but pushing 144Hz with a 720p source requires a Quad core @ 4.2Ghz+, and 1080p may even require a 6-core.

Interpolation to 60Hz is a good option to improve video smoothness, but 144Hz will only be able to be full utilized by 720p videos.
 


I have an 8 core cpu so I'll give it a try.
Wow Now it looks like the tvs and monitors I seen thanks man
