MG278Q monitor supports 144hz, only able to show up to 120hz

I recently got a display that runs 144hz. I hooked it up to my GTX760 graphics card via Display Port. When I went to change the adapter settings I could select up to 120hz, but nothing higher. I also noticed that the monitor was called a generic PNP monitor instead of by its name, making me believe there was a driver missing. Alas Asus has so drivers available for this monitor. I also downloaded the latest driver from nvidia to no avail. I swapped the monitor over to dvi to see if that works but it does not. Now I am at a loss for ideas.

CPU: I5 760 OC to 3.5 from 2.8
GPU: EVGA 760 4GB
Motherboard P7P55D-E Deluxe Asus
750W PSU
12GB Ram
and other stuff.

I checked through your link and there was only a utility software. No sight of a driver anywhere.
