Okay, so do I just unplug one and it should work?
My main goal was to do a GPU passthrough to a VM for the GTX 950 anyways.
yes only one plugged it should works
you may get this log with iommu=pt

For that indeed you will need later to do as @stephane explained.
To get your system booting, use just one card. Before you will add back the second one you will have to get the BusID PCI for that card and add it to the /etc/X11/mhwd.d/nvidia.conf file.
Sometimes booting with nomodeset instead of quiet helps, even without the nvidia.conf, but with multiple Monitors things will get unpredictable …

Okay I just took out my GTX 950 and the monitor plugged into it. Now, were only dealing with one monitor plugged into my GTX 750 Ti. How do I get the BusID PCI? Also, I uninstalled all NVIDIA drivers from earlier. Do you want me to reinstall them?
After booting with just one card and one monitor I got the same result. I am still able to access tty2, as mentioned earlier.
If I really need to, I can reinstall Manjaro with the open source drivers, and at least have access to a desktop. But I’ll need to know how to get the proprietary drivers working correctly.
If you boot the live USB with Proprietary Drivers, is it working?
Might want to install from TTY the video-nvidia and see if after that you can boot.
I also recommend, as in my case never gave me troubles, to enable early KMS
The quickest way to get the BusID is via Nvidia Settings, i can’t recall right now the command

if you have a terminal or console TTY
sudo mhwd -a pci nonfree 0300

No, booting from a live USB with proprietary drivers yields the same black screen.
After installing video-nvidia using
sudo mhwd --install pci video-nvidia
I got the same exact black screen.
can you recheck
on UEFI motherboard
advanced cpu
SVM is on
and retry , dont forget to add on boot kernel “iommu=pt” with USB iso live manjaro

I can’t seem to find SVN. I see the following:
PSS Support
NX Mode
SVM Mode
SMT Mode
AMD fTPM switch
So do you want me to go into the grub file of the live USB and add iommu=pt?
this one
before booting grub , add “iommu=pt”
with non free drivers

Oh okay. It was already enabled.
Wait! The live USB just worked with proprietary drivers! I am at a desktop right now.
If I install Manjaro from this, will it give me the proprietary drivers on my installation?
yes for the drivers
not for boot kernel
from USB live manjaro apply this and add option “iommu=pt”
from Terminal
sudo manjaro-chroot -a
nano /etc/default/grub
save (Ctrl+X)
update-grub
exit ( end-chroot )

Okay, I did all that in the chroot. Now I can install Manjaro again from the live USB?
you have already installed
boot kernel is changed
is nvidia drivers video installed on disk ?

So then I don’t need to reinstall a new installation?
I did install nvidia drivers on the SSD yes.
then let try , reboot , remove USB live iso ,
