It's technically capable but you won't see that kind of output on virtually with that hardware

The monitor is a 1440 144hz Monitor with HDMI 2.1 which is compatible for 1440p 144hz which is the Native resolution.

Your Monitor only uses HDMI 2.0,

There are no Monitor's available as of yet that supports HDMI 2.1,

The very first Monitor to support HDMI 2.1 ( The World's First Monitor to have HDMI 2.1 ) won't be released until the end of December if it doesn't get delayed and that's a 4K 144hz Monitor.

I believe that you need to have a monitor that is Freesync and Freesync has to be supported over HDMI, as well as, the monitor needs to have HDMI 2.0 ports and supports 120/144hz, looking at that, and being G-sync, it seems to have HDMI 1.4 ports which limits
it to 1440p at 60hz

A new monitor is needed if you want 1440p at 120hz,

Pulled this info from a website...

"Nowadays, most of the monitors, TVs, and graphics cards feature at least an HDMI 1.4 port which is enough for 144Hz at 1080p, 75Hz at 1440p, and 30Hz at 4K.

However, keep in mind that some monitors have limited bandwidth over HDMI 1.4 making it max out at 120Hz or even at 60Hz in some cases (mostly G-SYNC and older monitors).

In fact, most 144Hz monitors are limited to 120Hz over HDMI 1.4, but some monitor manufacturers will use custom timing parameters, pixel rates, etc to use the full potential of the HDMI 1.4 bandwidth thus getting 144Hz at 1080p.

So, make sure that the exact monitor you’re looking at supports 144Hz or at least 120Hz over its HDMI 1.4 port – or just look for a 144Hz display with HDMI 2.0.

HDMI 2.0 is also fairly standard and can be used for 240Hz at 1080p, 144Hz at 1440p, and 60Hz at 4K. The latest HDMI 2.1 adds native support for 120Hz at 4K UHD
and 60Hz at 8K."

I have triple checkt it, 2.0 hdmi 1440p @ 144hz

Some monitors only support DP display port up to 144hz but that is not the case, I've done my research
