Your log contains:
(**) NVIDIA(0): Using HorizSync/VertRefresh ranges from the EDID has been
(**) NVIDIA(0): disabled on all display devices.
Do you have a HorizSync/VertRefresh in the monitor section that limits the
display to a low refresh rate?
I might add that the monitor mentioned on line 445:
(--) NVIDIA(0): MED MD30917PN S14 (CRT-0): 400.0 MHz maximum pixel clock
is a TFT display. Most TFT displays prefer to run at 60Hz, given they
resample the input and act refresh-free (unlike CRTs). I can't imagine that
it would give you "eye cancer", since the refresh rate will be imposed by
the TFT itself, not the video card :)
My advice: Turn EDID back on. If it doesn't fix it, turn it back off and
read the display manual and put correct HorizSync/VertRefresh values into
the monitor section.
