Two things:

First line of the backtrace shows the GPU driver crashing:

Code:
com.apple.nvidia.classic.NVDAResmanTesla(10.0.2)[C9A3682D-9EE9-3570-B8D9-2F1AE0F332F7]@0xffffff7f99375000->0xffffff7f995ddfff

NVDAResmanTesla is the GT120 driver. Test with a known working GPU.

Second:

MP51.0087.B00 is the infamous High Sierra installed Mac Pro firmware that Apple forgot to include Intel microcodes and bricks the Mac Pro when you run UEFI installed Windows. Also known for other problems like disabling the chime.

Upgrade your Mac Pro firmware as soon as you can.

Yes, you can. I've linked the stickie thread about MacPro5,1 BootROM upgrades, do your homework, replace the GPU and upgrade at least to MP51.0089.B00.
