Acer Predator XB252Q 240Hz only giving the option of 200hz in OS settings.

Title pretty much sums it up. I'm using the display port cable that came with the monitor, plugged in to my GTX 970. I got the monitor as a gift for my birthday today so hopefully I'm just doing something wrong and my setup can support 240hz.

Any help would be great.

DisplayPort 1.2 is capable of 1080p 240 Hz. Course you will need to verify your graphics card is display port 1.2 but anything current should be.
not sure if cable have any way to check ...

Try setting a custom resolution in the NVIDIA control panel.
