I am looking in to doing some game recording and just bought the ASUS VG248QE 24" Full HD 1920x1080 TN 144Hz 1ms Display and wanted to know what the difference would be recording on a 144hz monitor rather than 60hz. Will i get better quality videos doing slow motion recordings at around 300fps on my 144hz?

A good computer. 144 FPS is more than 60 FPS. You get much smoother picture. However, recording is different. While your display can only display up to 144 frames, recording and slowing down is basically just how many frames you get, which is not dependant on your monitor. It also depends on what game you play, some games can't go above X FPS without causing problems with the game. After recording you want to convert all your files to DNxHD (broadcast formats), from whatever the original file was, usually .AVI, which is one of the worst files to edit with. DNxHD is easier to edit with, smaller files, and no quality loss. In Premiere for instance, all you literally do is slow down your high FPS clip to get to 24 or 30 FPS for smooth...

In Premiere for instance, all you literally do is slow down your high FPS clip to get to 24 or 30 FPS for smooth playback, preferably 24, for the best result. I wouldn't worry too much, there are plenty of tutorials out there.
