Most likely yes - unless it is extremely old.

All of the cards on this page will run Octane: http://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus
However the PMC rendering kernel will not run on cards with compute capability 1.0.

Cheers
Chris

The one that has bigges amount of vram and fastest cores =) Tesla, has no video out option, these are computational cards..and are a bit cheapper compared to Quadro (at the same level of ram/speed, because of the reason i've mentioned =)

It depends on the model You are looking to.

Older & Tesla M cards doesn't have any conections in the end just grills of even sold without shells as they are targeted to server environment with shroud cooling systems =) only the new C line has those output conectors..And probably unreleased k20 (based on gk110) as this will be targeted to servers and workstations too.
