The device id is 0x605 which is not a published value.  See:

.html

Dell (this is a Dell XPS 730X) sometimes gets their own device ids.  You
will need to do:

  # update_drv -a -i '"pci10de,605"' nvidia
  # reboot

You will need to do this after each upgrade as the nvidia driver will be
reinstalled and the pci10de,605 alias will be removed.  I can add this
device alias to the next driver release (probably b106).
