Thanks for the link. I was indeed curious about the "connector-type" sections of my SSDT-GFX1.aml hotpatch that I previously tried, since it had all 4 frame buffers set as 0008 0000, which is HDMI, but I couldn't find anywhere that confirmed whether or not that connector types were the same between Intel and Nvidia. From looking at that thread, apparently they are.
So I put my hotpatch back in place, and tried all of the types, thinking for sure that LVDS or eDP would have worked. Unfortunately, they did not, nor did any of the other ones.
I'm really starting to think that the issue is the "DreamColor" display that my laptop uses. That is something that none of the other 8750w Hackintosh users mentioned as having. From reading around, these screens apparently use some sort of unique connection that may not be compatible with a Hackintosh at all. Something about a custom chip that drives them that doesn't take LVDS input, but does output it:

The internal display does work if I boot with nv_disable=1. Would booting with that and checking the connections in IORegistryExplorer give any clues for the correct settings?
I attached my hotpatch in case it yields any clues. When I use it, it changes the video card ID to GFX1, and the connector type changes I make to NVDA,Display-A@0 also show.
