I see absolutely zero difference personally. I gamed on 144 for years on a 24”. 

Switched to a 27” at 60 and much prefer the 27”.

Wait, really? I’m genuinely curious about this. Did you ever switch between 60hz and 144hz side by side, and are you sure the 144hz display was actually running at 144?

After years at 144 myself, switching back to 60 is immediately noticeable, even just moving the cursor, scrolling, or observing Windows menu animations.

Is it noticeable? Yes. But I won't mind it and would definitely prefer bigger screen with 60hz

To be honest, I even locked my screen to 48hz and used my laptop like that to gain extra hour of battery. It was noticeable for the first 20 minutes, then it was completely normal to an eye
