If I connect this monitor to my IMac with Thunderbolt 3, will I get 144hz or 120hz of the monitor on Mac?

It depends on the Mac. For example, my 2017 MacBook Pro 15" can only address the monitor with 75hz. This is because it only supports DP 1.2 via Thunderbolt. DP 1.4 can only support 120hz at this resolution. You would therefore need DP 2.0, but as far as I know this is not yet supported by Apple. Check the specs of your device, you can find them here:

support.apple.com/de_DE/specs

There

you will also find which refresh rates are supported. The higher the refresh rate, the higher the bandwidth required. This in turn could be solved with DSC (Display Stream Compression), etc. In short, not all DPs are the same and you have to pay attention and check all the specs.

I have been using the monitor for a good year and I am very satisfied with it. I bought it on the first day it was available.
