60Hz on a 144hz monitor?

[theuraniumbow]

I play first person shooters and was looking to buy a 144hz monitor for my new build, but some of my games are capped at 60hz. Skyrim for example, yes I still play it, won't work above 60fps. So my question is, if I buy a 144hz for that extra edge in shooters, will running 60fps in games look worse than on a 60hz display?
Thanks in advance.

No, it won't change how it looks at all.

If your needs require a Vsynced display image, the you would need a monitor with adaptive sync that can handle that range.

If you don't require a vsyn'd image and don't mind screen tearing, then it's easier to transition to 144 Hz
