To find your build number click where it says "Version 10.11" in your image or look at System Information - Software.
You don't need to find a driver, there is native support for your graphics card, you just need the correct settings in your config.plist.
 
I figured out how to get the graphics working. I needed to boot with nv_ disable=1 install the nvidia web driver. Lilu and nvidia graphics fixup kext. Restart and use the arg nvda_drv=1

Your GT 710 is Kepler based and has drivers right within macOS. Why make it so much more complicated ? You've chosen the wrong iMac system definition. Why not use iMac 10,1 instead ?

It didn't work out of the box without the driver installed. It went to a black screen or a restart loop Without the nvidia fix kext. If it was that simple I wouldn't have had to do all that. At least it's working now.
