That's what I get too -

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GT218 [GeForce 
405] (rev a2)

It works fine for me with mate with this:

kernel-3.10.0-693.5.2.el7.x86_64
kmod-nvidia-340xx-340.102-4.el7_4.elrepo.x86_64

I've had problems with gnome 3 and nvidia before, but haven't tested in 
a very long time, been running mate for years.
