AMD cards are not very well supported under Arch.
The proprietary driver isn't well supported by ATI, it's not an Arch issue. The answer to the question in the subject is, no, if you need the proprietary driver you will notice that someday ATI's driver for your card only is compatible to an outdated version of X. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AMD_Catalyst#Xorg_repositories NVIDIA's proprietary driver support is better. Btw. I always have both available an ATI and a NVIDI graphics, assumed one graphics should cause issues, I simply switch between the graphics. However, I only use the open source drivers, but in combination with linux-rt.
