"To output 1080p at 120Hz or 144Hz, you need a dual link DVI-D or DisplayPort cable and connect those to your monitor and computer. These standards include support for higher resolutions and refresh rates. HDMI 1.3 or higher can also be used to output 1080p content at 144Hz. If you need a 144Hz monitor then be sure"

2 vs 5 ms is almost not noticeable. In this price range I would actually pick an IPS version instead
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/6NtCmG/asus-monitor-vs239hpIPS show much better coloring than 6bit TN panel you find in this price class. And you get better viewing angles.
But 60hz vs 144hz is is quite noticeable at least to me. It reduces stuttering and give overall an more smooth expirence. I see this every day because I havery 1x 144hz and 2x 60hz, I would never be able to go back 60hz for main monitor.
As for a splitter the term you are looking for is "adapter"
But you might as well use the two hdmi ports on the card instead of dvi.
Dvi-d, DP and HDMI 1.4+ all supports 144hz 1080p.
I use DP for my 144hz 1440p monitor.
