This is only an issue if you're using CRU to create EDID overrides. GeForce Experience works fine with EDID overrides if you use a custom extension block. You don't need to put anything in the extension block.

Using the same timings as my AMD card, I get flickering now on the 980 Ti

I've seen several reports of this with 900-series cards. Some 900-series cards seem to have lower-quality DVI ports that can't handle higher pixel clocks. Nobody ever mentions the exact card they have, so I don't know if the problem is isolated to a particular brand or if it's a widespread problem.

The NVIDIA control panel has the same timing parameters. The back porch is part of the total.

Did you patch the driver and use a custom extension block?
