Look at https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/
There is a list of supported drivers for Solaris x64/x86. Following the
provided links you can find a list of supported products. The lists
don't contain consumer grade cards but they are usually compatible
enough to work, too.
You have to find out which chipset your cards has and with that which
driver version might be best suited.
470.x is needed for newer cards but also works for many older cards. You
can try to replace 470 by 390 or 340.
