If possible, configure your system such that your graphics card does not share its IRQ with other devices.

Check your bios settings and let the OS manage the IRQs. For example if your BIOS has an option for "Plug and Play Operating System", or similar, and if it is set to 'Yes' or 'Enabled' then set it to 'No' or 'Disabled'.

If this doesn't work, try booting into Ubuntu with one of (or a combination of) these kernel parameters:
Parameter Behavior
pci=noacpi don't use ACPI for PCI IRQ routing
pci=biosirq use PCI BIOS calls to retrieve the IRQ routing table
noapic don't use I/O APICs present in the system
acpi=off disable ACPI
