I downloaded Strobelight from this thread, followed the instructions, told it to install both the 120hz strobed and 144hz. Restart, screen looks as described, and I'll add some pictures as well so you can see. I run Stobelight and as it started counting up for initializing the display the screen became more unstable, throwing up horizontal lines across the screen, then eventually Strobelight tells me my monitor is incompatible.

I'm using the DVI port, and I've tried the HDMI on it, it works as well but it shrinks the screen and I can never have a normal resolution with it so I just stuck with the DVI. I have a second monitor (Read: TV) that I can use, and that one runs fine through my HDMI though with the same issue. I don't know of any way to see the refresh rate from the desktop, and I'm pretty sure fraps doesn't work there.

I know it's hard to see it in these pics, but taking a screenshot from the computer just shows a normal screen so I had to use my phone. Also, turning 'tracefree' up in the monitors settings makes the lines more visible, did that and put on bf4 to make it easier to see what I mean.
