Hello everyone. I have spent the last two days searching threads here and on the web trying to solve the problem that I have but I tried many solutions and still have the problem. You wouldn't believe, I actually made a working Sierra with a i7-7700k, that is a little bit difficult comparing to old chips, I was able to install and make everything work, except for the stupidest thing. The GPU. I have a 1070, I installed the last drivers, even updating after installing on the preference pane. I then had a problem, that was selecting then vodka driver every time I was rebooting. I also FIXED that! But, the real problem comes now. The GPU can't be detected. If I go into Nvidia Driver Manager and then ECC, the only thing that shows up is No device found. I tried uninstalling, reinstalling and using different boot flags, but nothing.
I am using iMac 14,2

Corsair Vengeance LED DDR4 16GB 3000MHz
Please help me solving this problem, thank you!!

That would be because your graphics card does not have ECC RAM.

BIOS - Disable Integrated graphics - PEG as Primary
Use a digital connection - DVI or HDMI - VGA is not supported.
Boot with nv_disable=1
Install web drivers
Config.plist - Do not inject Intel or Nvidia graphics
Edit config.plist - NvidiaWeb = true As per Link
May need to emulate NVRAM - Problem 6
Remove nv_disable=1 from config.plist

Your GPU doesn't have ECC VRAM, so the Nvidia Tool is reporting it correctly.
Please attach config.plist

I just did everything here, the guide to edit config.plist wasn't useful because I already had the exact same parameters, and the other link, problem 6, was already a solution that I found when I first got this problem, so I tried everything listed under problem 6 solutions, but nothing changed. I can boot with nv_disable=1 and I receive graphics with the info that you can see on my screenshot (Nvidia Chip 5MB) but if I go with nv_drv=1 or even without (relaying on the guide you linked to me, that is using another method to start the drivers) I get past the loading bar, and then all goes black and my monitor goes standby. I bet everything works under the black screen, cause the devices are responsive so the only problem here is the graphics..

*EDIT*
I forgot to mention, the only thing that I did that was different from the guides was that I had inject intel enabled in clover configurator, so I removed it from the boot flags, but still nothing
 
Check that you have disabled your integrated graphics in your BIOS settings.

Yeah I know, but I followed the guide to patch this NVRAM problem, installing EmuVariableUefi-64 and so on.
There is my config.plist

Your config.plist is bizarre to say the least.

GraphicsEnabler=Yes is only for the Chimera / Chameleon boot loader and has no validity in Clover.
Why boot with busratio=32 ?
Why select cpus=1 ?

GraphicsEnabler was one of the solution I found over the internet, but it's completely useless, so ignore that.
For cpus=1 and busratio=32, these are indispensable to make my 7700K to boot, because of the kaby lake architecture.

My motherboard has no option to completely disable integrated graphics. Please read here, I already selected peg

I think you may be mistaken there.
