What our 50Hz TVs or 144Hz monitors? How does 30/60 work on those?

Well it works the same, they just bring different caps.   If you have a 50Hz (where would you get one? :P ), any game running at over 50fps will look the same as a game running at 50fps because the TV itself is refreshing at 50fps so it's a sort of cap in practical terms.  While with the 144Hz monitor, you are capable of experiencing framerates up to 144fps, if you have the hardware for it.  

But that means that a 30fps game does not run smoothly on a 50Hz TV. Similar to how a 45fps game does not run smoothly on a 60Hz TV. I'm just applying the logic that says that 30fps and 60fps are smooth because they are multiple of 60Hz unlike 45Hz.
