Are you sure that the native osx kexts dont have to be deleted ? Just install the package and thats all ?

I think so, yes. I did a CCC Backup after the installation and the CCC Archive contained a lot of nvidia kexts...

Great! Got my new monitor in all 3 screens are working.

Now I just need to finish putting the computer back together and clean up wires.

Found a fix to this issue without having to change out which SMBIOS you are running.
Download Nvidia drivers and this: http://cl.ly/0L3a1h1z1f3D

1) Mount the downloaded DMG File
2) Right click on the package and click "Show Package Contents"
3) Inside the Contents folder you will see a Distribution.dist replace it with the one from the download.
4) Run package like normal
