Hey, first of all, I know that nvidia webdrivers are not available since High Sierra. But there's a workaround which consists of patching and then installing the High Sierra webdrivers on Mojave/Catalina to get a partial support : multi-monitor and a much better fluidity (but no 3D acceleration).
I did it and it worked for me on Mojave, I patched the webdrivers, installed them and boom, I had all my monitors working and I could feel my system being much faster/smoother. But now I upgraded to Big Sur and noticed that my webdrivers did not work at all. It told me in the configuration pane that there was no version made for Big Sur, so I uninstalled it (was it a mistake?, after that I could never get the setting pane to work) and tried to patch them for Big Sur (11.5/20G71) and the installer works until the end where I get an error, (same when running installer from the terminal, and after I reboot I get the nvidia pane in settings, but it freezes when trying to open it.
I saw that people got them working in Big Sur, so this may be not impossible? Anyway if you know something about that let me know ! And sorry if my english is kinda approximative :)
