The elrepo nvidia drivers will disable the nouveau driver automatically
so you don't need to worry about things like that.

Don't over-think it. I would recommend you just set up your system the

fully updated. Then just:

yum install nvidia-detect
yum install $(nvidia-detect)

and reboot, and you should be good to go.
