Why don't you use 4.7 that just came out?
It lists "GeForce 9XXX" as supported in
the nv(4) manpage.

When reporting HW problems, always include the full dmesg.

What happens _without_ a config file?

Generate a config file with 'X -configure' and try just
changing the Driver "nv" to "vesa". (That's what worked
for me with various nVidia chips.) Don't forget to copy
the (working) config file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Consult /var/log/Xorg.0.log if there are more problems.
