This method only worked for me after a clean install in upgrade did not work ...

I've also never had a problem using the native OS drivers for 5+ years.
I have two kexts in the 10.12 directory (FakeSMC and NullCPU...) with using iMax 12,2 since I have a Sandy Bridge MB. The only reason I'm trying to use the NVIDIA drives is due to the black screen as explained in the forums. I'm starting to believe my problem is something else. When I use nv_disable=1 everything seems to be fine with Sierra (other than the graphics of course). Could I by change look a your config.plist file?
I'm going to try again to use the native drivers to see what happens. Thanks for the input.

raketa, you mentioned that you are using the iMac12,2 system definition.... I was doing so myself and also was unable to get my GTX 960 working in Sierra, although it had worked flawlessly in El Capitan.
I switched to iMac14,2 and my GTX 960 started working instantly after the next boot... why don't you give this a try?
This worked for me. I was a 11,2 and switched to 14,2. Now back to 4K. (Only about 8 hours lost... )
How do you switch from 12,2 to 14,2? Do you just change it in the config.plist file? I have serial numbers and machine numbers that I created for iMessage purposes.
I used Clover Configurator. Magic Wand SMBIOS screen. After it generated everything, I copied all my serial numbers, etc. and pasted over the top. Saved. Rebooted.
Black screen went away. Nvidia drivers kicked in and I have 4k. Verified my iMessage still works.
