I’m not sure what your cpu & ram is. If you are on an ssd, and have a decent quad core- maybe… It wouldn’t stay 144fps, it would fluctuate. A gtx780 or maybe a 970 could do it, but I doubt a 960 could do a solid 144fps. 60 sure, but 144, I dunno. (I had a gtx770 and it could not pull off 144 nor 100fps at 1080p.)hope that helps.

It does help, thank you.  
I have an i7 4790 non-k and 2x4Gb of basic Kingston 1600 RAM.

That is a tall order for your current videocard. Creative overclocking will be needed. Stay at 1080 for enjoyable gameplay.

The 960 isn’t a bad videocard by any means, but to ask ANY single card to run at a stable 144FPS at 1440p would be very optimistic, even if you’re lowering your settings etc.

What kind of frames do you have atm?

I run bf4 with everything on low, except mesh quality on ultra and 2xFXAA on a 768p HDTV.  
I get a constant 200fps (won’t go higher for some reason).

Thing is, I want a big display upgrade and then get a new GPU later in the year, so actually I don’t really care about getting a constant 144fps with the Gtx 960, just wonder if I can have a decent experience while waiting for a new GPU.

At the moment I’m leaning toward the Acer free sync 1440p 144Hz TN monitor and then get myself a Polaris 10 GPU.

What does an ssd have to do with maintaining framerate?

I’m on a GTX770 and I have no problems with 144hz on 1080p.
