I built a new little system containing:
Mainboard: Gigabyte H110M-S2H
CPU: i3 6100 (3.7 GHz)
GPU: MSI nVidia GT 710 (1 GB VRAM, Kepler chip)
RAM: 8 GB DDR4
SSD: Crucial M4 256 GB
under El Capitain 10.11.3 and Clover 3346 (UEFI.
All but graphics is working perfectly.
Because integrated graphics Intel HD 530 is not supported by Apple (nor acceleration, only CESA driver) I bought this cheap nVidia card. First it crashed during booting, but after setting nv_disable=1 and no "inject NVidia" in config.plst I could boot with the HD resolution of 1920x1080 as I intended to do.
Problem now: No acceleration and use of VESA driver as with integrated graphics.
Then installed newest nVidia webdriver and set nvda_drv=1 and restart nothing changed. The nVidia web driver refused to be switched on (after every reboot is set back to OS X drivers) and it could not detect a graphics card in no slot. Still no acceleration. In "About this Mac" I got the graphics string. NVIDIA Chip Model 7MB.
Tried to change SMBIOS to Powermac 3.1 / 6.1 and iMac 13.2 /14.2 / 15.1 which made no difference.
Video is sluggish and partly distorted with Safari. Redraw in Dashboard after click on "+" takes more than 10 s. So I'm sure that the web driver is not active (my main system behaves different) but don't know a solution.
