I would sooner run mine at 240Hz but if you want to use in in game  V-sync as Ixoye expains perfecty you will have to set it to 60hz.

If you can keep FPS above 40 FPS you could set your screen to 120Hz and set FPS to 20, its not 20 FPS its 1/3 so you will have 40 FPS.

How would to set it up for using a 144hz monitor? To get it smooth?

thanks

It depends also if you run TrackIR. TrackIR (4 and 5) has a pull rate of 120Hz. If this (or a half divisions like 60 or 30) doesn't match the refreshrate of your monitor and your FPS isn't locked to those values, you can have stutters on fast moving terrain/objects like when looking sideways (looking forward generally isn't a problem). If you set your monitor to 144Hz the divisions don't match those of TrackIR causing slight stutter. Therefore I run my 144Hz monitor at 120Hz. In game i set FPS to 30 and VSync on.

Thanks for this info.. Ive tried all manner of settings and wondered why i keep getting stutters...it must be TIR causing some kind of lag etc...

So do i have to change my monitor to 120hz for this to work with track ir? Or do i adjust TIR somewhere? Or leave at 144hz?

Thanks for any help mate

I would bring it down to 120Hz instead of 144Hz (i did the same). This way, refreshrate of the monitor is 120Hz and then VSync is either 120, 60, 30 or 15. This coops nicely with the pull rate of TIR.
You then need to cap your FPS to one of these values, i use 30 in MSFS but 60 in other flightsims because i can't maintain 60 all the time in MSFS.
If you leave it on 144Hz, Vsync values are 144, 72, 36, 18. These values don't match the pull rate of TIR causing slight stutter on fast moving terrain most noticable when looking sideways because there you really see the motion.
