not so surprising. pure EFI without legacy CSP does not have a VESA BIOS.
all you get is what the bootloader could figure out about the framebuffer
that the firmware set up for us. thats is what we have to work with until
you invoke a native driver to set up a proper mode.

might just not know about your specific card yet.
