Hi Jedd,
There are options in the nvidia driver that must be enabled/disabled to solve
this problem. First you should check if you have a config that is conflicting
with the default nvidia setup. The latest releases of the driver are configured
to have the best performances by default with KDE4. Give a look to xorg.conf
xinitrc in /etc and your home folder. Try to use nvidia-settings after as
suggested here:

Anyhow, this is not a KDE4 bug.
Device section in my xorg.conf:
Section "Device"
Identifier "nVidia Corporation GeForce 8600M GS"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "DynamicTwinView" "0"
Option "AddARGBVisuals" "True"
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
Option "Coolbits" "False"
Option "BackingStore" "True"
Option "OnDemandVBlankInterrupts" "True"
EndSection
Read what every option does to your X.
