nVidia's 173.xxx drivers have notoriously bad 2D/KDE4 support.
The situation has been somewhat improved by the beta release of the
177.xx (177.70) drivers - though they still leak memory like crazy once
KDE composition is enabled.

In short, at least for now, KDE4 composition is off-limits for nVidia
users.
