You can still use X though, speaking from experience Nvidia drivers don't work at all on Wayland.

Furthermore this is a great resource which will certainly be useful to OP

I actually bought a second graphics card for use with linux because I was sick of deciding between slow (nouveau) and crashy (nv proprietary). I have a WX2100 and it has been completely rock solid. I can't use X11 without some as-yet-to-be-discovered workaround because it won't give up on using my nvidia card, even though I have that card attached to vfio-pci. Wayland is solid though.
