You're absolutely right, they are my DIMMS.  I assumed that was the EDID and 
its shadows because they started at the same address and I'd seen the same 
output on some other nvidia users' reports.  Now I know better, thanks!

I'm using nvidia's binary driver v169.07, and yes, the nvidia I2C buses are 
there.  i2cdetect -l:

i2c-3   i2c             NVIDIA i2c adapter                      I2C adapter
i2c-2   i2c             NVIDIA i2c adapter                      I2C adapter
i2c-1   i2c             NVIDIA i2c adapter                      I2C adapter
i2c-0   smbus           SMBus I801 adapter at 0400              SMBus adapter

However, decode-edid.pl and ddcmon both report that an EDID EEPROM is not 
found.
