I am in the same situation as the image you uploaded. It is still problematic. The screen is 165Hz mode but still limited to 144Hz. The "Maximum" on the right is still 144Hz. How can I fix it and finally get my 165 frames?
Started a new thread. Are you also using the GTX 1070 and connecting via the supplied DP to DP cable? Don't worry about the right maximum. That is a notation for normal mode only. If you see 165Hz Overclock Mode on the left, you have it setup correctly. Read through this.
Enable G-SYNC in the Nvidia Control Panel * Open the Nvidia Control Panel * Open Display * Click Setup G-SYNC * Check Enable G-SYNC * Insert the dot to, "Enable G-SYNC for windowed and full screen mode" * Click Apply * Open 3D Settings * Click Manage 3D Settings * Click the Global Settings tab * Open Monitor Technology * Choose G-SYNC * Click Apply * Close the the Nvidia Control Panel
Enable G-SYNC in the S2417DG Menu OSD (On Screen Display) * Press the Menu button to open the OSD * Go to Others * Choose Factory Reset * Change to On. This reset the S2417DG to Factory Defaults * Go up to Display * Enable Overclock * Go to Overclock Refresh Rate * Set it to 165Hz * Exit the Menu
