Trouble with NVidia 960

Hello. I had a perfectly working Hackintosh Snow Leopard 10.6.8 for many years.
Now that I have upgraded my GPU I have no clue where from to get a new driver for Snow Leopard.
I used to have a NVidia 250GT and it was working great with Snow Leopard.
Now with the NVidia 960 all I get is 1024*768 resolution.
I tried visiting the NVidia website for drivers, but selecting the 960 I didn't find any Mac OS Drivers.
I tried searching the forum for drivers for the NVidia 960 and those that I have found are for a newer OS such as 10.11 and 10.12.
So is there any way I could get any better resolution with my NVidia 960? Otherwise the hackintosh seems to work fine.
I can't upgrade to a newer OS, I am stuck with 10.6.8 because I am using a very old program in this hackintosh that doesn't work with newer OS X.

There are no drivers for the GTX 9xx series GPUs in SL. Mavericks or later is required to use these GPUs.

For SL, you can use anything up to the GT400 series GPUs - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nvidia_graphics_processing_units. for the charts of the different GPUs by nVidia

Thank you so much for clarifiying this! I wouldn't be able to find this info.
So I guess I will stick to 1024*768 resolution since I can't replace my gfx card at the moment.

I checked the Wiki page you send me, but I didn't find in the charts any compatibility info about the Snow Leopard.
How do you know all that?
