I'm running nvidia graphics cards (2 connected to monitors) so its a royal pain but I'm running the nvidia drivers. Its not that easy to set up the first time (I spent a lot of time the first time) but now its a painful process but its quite doable. You need to remove the nouveau driver. Means that first you need to get your system running on something else and then you black list nouveau and then you install the nvidia drivers and then you need to setup all the goodies and then you can turf the nouveau drivers and then you have OK performance.
