I just checked NVidia site:
What they offer is version 295 there.

I'll try that one out. Don't remember seeing that one as an option on the repo or mentioned any where else. Thank you again!

I can't find the driver on any repository available to me. Where can I find and how do I add other repos that might have what I need?
Was there not an installation script in the above link I posted?
I don't believe it does
?
You do not trust a shell script which NVidia itself supply?
No. I guess I'm just new to this and don't see it?
If you could point me in the right direction and try and figure it out. Where do I find the script?
In that page, there is a button says : download
You can often install a specific Nvidia driver with the number from the Terminal.
In this case
sudo apt install nvidia-295
This is entirely dependent on whether it is in the Universe Repository, however.
Oh... I didn't even assume that I'd touch that as I'm always recommended to do everything through the terminal and the package manager and avoid downloading the things from the official websites
For the record, that is exactly how I manually install a GPU driver, if there are no better options available to me, in the Additional Drivers list. Excellent advice Aravisian!

When I run the command it reads: "Unable to locate package nvidia-295"
I think it is too old. 
What you mean?
Is there a solution?
Have you tried Zorin OS 15, yet? Or just Zorin 16?
I think only Zorin 16. I went straight to the website and clicked the download button and got the version that comes from there

Zorin OS 15 is supported until April of 2025.
It uses a different kernel and xserver-xorg, which may perform better with your card. It might be worth testing it to see.
Would I be able to install the drivers then?
Would it be possible to install a different driver that works better then no driver?
2025 is a long ways away but I don't feel comfortable about eventually losing support
