I agree with Matthew, look at

If you can't live without it :
1) Boot without X, and login as root
2) sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-195.36.15-pkg2.run
It will compile a kernel module against your current kernel, and when
you will upgrade the kernel you have to do it again.
Some minutes needed.
After that, follow what explained in the link above.

As suggested above do not install the run package but make sure
rpmfusion is in your repo
then install it from either yum or add/remove software
If you install the above run file YOU WILL HAVE TO RECOMPILE KMOD on
every kernel update.
If you do it from repo then it is automatic
The how to details how to install correctly
You must blacklist nouveau in grub config before you reboot after the
driver install
On each kernel line after quiet rdblacklist=nouveau
