    So I got a panel that is 120hz and gsync compatible supposedly(N156HHE-GA1) but I am not able to get gsync enabled after reinstalling drivers..

    Nvidia supposedly released a driver that allows you to force g-sync on any display with adaptive sync so not sure why it wouldn't even work on a native g-sync screen.

    The driver enables G-Sync on Adaptive-Sync/FreeSync external monitors, not the laptop’s own panel. If the laptop never shipped with G-Sync support on any configuration, then you won’t be able to enable it despite any panel swap.
