GPU scaling wouldnt work

Hi guys, I game on a Razer Blade 2017 and i connected it to a 21:9 display. When i play competitive shooters, i want the game stay 16:9 with black bars on the side. However, the scaling option in Nvidia Control panel refused to work. As you can see in the screenshot, even with "Aspect ratio" and "Scaling on GPU", the Preview is still a stretched image. How can i force the games to maintain 16:9 with black bars on the side?

Depending on the game you should be able to change the aspect ratio in it.

 

Also try full screen there maybe.

 

Or just run games windowed.

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

I tried setting aspect ratio to 16:9, I also tried full screen, still give me a stretched screen. And come on, who wants to play competitive shooters in windowed. Anyway, thanks for the suggestions.
