Hello. Im new here so ill get straight to the question, i currently have a LG 1360x768 generic monitor(bought second hand) and I want to upgrade to a LG 24GM79G-B 24" FHD 1920x1080 144Hz. I have a Nvidia GeForce GT 740. i have a round 140fps in csgo atm. Will it affect fps more, with the bigger resolution and refresh rate? Thank You.

Yes it will. The card have to push more pixels, so your performance will drop. monitor refresh rate doesn't affect the video card. With a gtx740, i don't think you will hit 144hz. Better off going to a 120 or 75hz monitor if you want to game at 1080p with your gpu. Unless you upgrade the gpu in the future.
