Not going to work over your monitors max refresh have to set frame limit. Gsync doesn't set cap vsync use to be one with gsync and it capped frames but vsync with gsyn is crap. Or set fast sync but TBH with frames that high i would just cap and enjoy gsync and not use fast sync

I can't repeat this again.. GSYNC ON.  Frame rates 250+  GSYNC is not working...... the ROG swift only goes to 144hz.. so, with gsync enabled, 250 isn't possible, as it should cap at 144... 
 
Just to put it out there, I hate repeating the same thing over and over.

the point of GSync is that it sync the max refresh rate to the monitor.  So, did they mysteriously remove that?  Every time I update drivers, GSync enables itself, and it runs the monitors at exactly 144hz or lower (depending on the game).  So, if it is enabled, the frame rate should be capped, No? If I have to turn on 4 settings to get the one I paid for to work, it isn't working.

I know I am new here.  I believe demo23019 is correct...
 
G-Sync was originally bound to V-Sync, and no longer is.  Correct me if I am wrong, my interpretation of that is that it will NOT cap your frame rates.

nvidia put vsync on globally before so it capped your frames at your monitor refresh with gsync.  IDK when last time you updated your drivers but they stopped this like 3 drivers ago and set vsync to use app setting so now you have to turn vsync on in game when using gsync if you want it like it was before. 
OR do it proper way set cap limit gsync and not use vsync at all as its not need and only adds lag .

That is new to me.  I didn't check the last driver update I did, but all the ones I had done previously had it bound.  If they removed the bind, then GSync is worthless and it should be fixed.  The point of buying GSync was to keep it bound to the max refresh so the motion would be fluid at all times, not so that I can go in and change other settings just to get what I paid for to work lol. 
 
Demo, I apologize, I see you edited your post after I posted, so your new post is much different than the one I replied to.

I don't tend to update drivers that work when I am not downloading a new game.  i recently just updated to 373.06 and it isn't attaching the VSync either, so I am guessing that was where the confusion came in. 
 
Now that I know that, I will just use the monitor without GSync.  It works fine with the frame rates going over 200 and doesn't cause any noticeable issues.
 
GSync Description: G-Sync is an advanced version of adaptive vertical sync with low latency and no tearing.  That needs to be edited as it is not any form of vertical sync now.

I could have worded better that why came back to respond.
 
SO yea if you want it like it was before just enable vsync in game.

Thank you.  I just added the description of GSync according to NVidia to my last post.
