When no extra options are effect, the DPI is calculated from the VirtualSize,
and results in

resolution: 196x193 dots per inch (== huge fonts)

but adding either UseEdidFalse+DPI [1] or DisplaySize [2] seems to have no
effect, e.g. xdpyinfo still reports 196x193, and hence all fonts are bigbig.

I tried to put the options in the "Monitor", "Screen" and "Device" sections
(even simultaneously) but the DPI is not set to what I want it to be.

Question btw: can I run one X server with nvidia and another with nv at the
same time?
