Hello Anthony I have the same video card on a MacPro Mid 2010 and it calibrates as well as the original video card that came originally with the MacPro. The NVDIA control panel for OSX doesn’t have any options to configure. We calibrate it to 100cd/m2 to match our average ambient light although it is a bit low to match prints on our Just Normlicht Prooftop Multi 5000. Our calibrator is a i1 Display Pro using BasICColor Display Not sure why your friend needs such a high luminosity. Is he working on direct sunlight?

I’m helping a friend get started with Color Management and the starting point is profiling his display. I use Eizos with the popup colorimeter and haven’t looked at the market for calibrators in a long time. I need some advice on what to recommend to him.
His situation is also complicated by his graphics card which is a Nvidia GeForce GTX 960, which I gather is a higher end gaming card. He’s on a PC and the Nvidea has its own control panel to set the parameters for the display. I didn’t get a good look at all the options, but it seems like a set of controls to made to screw up the simple profiling of the display. I’m not sure if he plays games with it, but he does want to get into photo editing. His original question to me was “why are my prints always too dark” when he claims to have the display set at 700cd/m2.
What equipment should I recommend to get him started? Thanks.
