Well, my motherboard is P5E-E SLI with
Chipset:
North Bridge: NVIDIA nForce 650i SLI (C55)
South Bridge: NVIDIA nForce 430i (MPC 51)

Expansion slots:
2 x PCI Express x16 slots with SLI support
1x PCI Express x1 slot
2x PCI slots (PCI 2.2)

So can be used on this motherboard AMD Radeon graphics cards at all?

If yes, does nouveau support these two Radeon cards
with OpenGL of course:
1.
VGA ASUS AMD Radeon R7 240, R7240-2GD3-L, 2GB DDR3, 128bit,
730/1800MHz, HDMI, DVI-D, D-sub

2.
VGA ASUS R7260X-OC-2GD5, AMD ATI RADEON R7 260X, 2GB GDDR5, 128-bit,
1075/5000MHz, 2x DVI, 1x HDMI, 1 x Display Port, 1 x DVI to D-Sub
adaptor, PCI Express 3.0
