Looks like the EDID in your display is very badly mangled:
(--) NVIDIA(0): ___ ???????????????????????????????????M (DFP-0)
(--) NVIDIA(0): ___ ???????????????????????????????????M (DFP-0): 135.0 MHz
(--) NVIDIA(0): maximum pixel clock
(--) NVIDIA(0): ___ ???????????????????????????????????M (DFP-0): Internal
(--) NVIDIA(0): Single Link TMDS
Is anything displayed during POST?
