    AFAIK yes, although it would be pretty pointless as they much more expensive than GeForce cards and would be no better at folding.

    But they ought to survive the stress of folding longer than consumer orientated graphics cards.

    If not a Tesla?

    Which are the best cards for folding that you can buy new?

    I wouldn't recommend the GTX 295 - they have a very high death rate when folding.
