I got a EX2510s BenQ monitor connected to my laptop. My laptop has 144hz, but why am I only getting 120hz max in my monitor? What seems to be the problem and can I do something about this? Thank you and sorry if it's stupid for me to not know.

The cable connection from your laptop to your external monitor is limiting your refresh rate. If your laptop has a DisplayPort (DP) connection, use it. If you only have a HDMI, you may be limited to 120Hz.
