Chronic screen ghosting

[Goat_Milk]

Hello guys…please I have a question and I’m very confused right now… I trust a professional to give me an answer

so I have an hp pavilion gaming 16 144hz gtx 1660ti max q intel core i5 10th gen but I have terrible ghosting not just while playing games even in the desktop homscreen, thank goodness for 144hz cause 60hz is totally unusable so much so that when I even move my mouse cursor on the desktop homescreen there’s a terrible black ghosting trail…I have to put it to 144hz for it to be manageable but the ghosting on 144hz is still very noticeable in some games,my friend has a 60hz pavillion gaming 15 laptop and doesn’t even get as much ghosting as I do on 144hz….trust me I’ve tried everything to fix it,I’ve tried updating all drivers,I’ve tried downgrading display drivers as well,even upgraded my laptop from win 10 to 11 cause of this issue yet the same thing and the thing is,there’s no ghosting when I plugged to an external monitor and my TV

now the question I need an answer to is should I spend the money in replacing the screen because it’s quite pricy in my country or could it be another hardware issue
