Short answer: no, not really.

 

Longer answer: it's passively cooled, so you'll need server levels of airflow to keep it cool. It's (give or take) a GTX 570, so it a) doesn't have that much performance and b) unlikely to have current driver support (because Tesla and old).

Strap a couple of fans to that GPU heatsink. It's designed to be hit with constant air pressure resulting from high-speed fans.

You have to do modification on it at and possibly another gpu as display pass through

A 570 is a real deal. if u have 4gb vram you can play anygame.  There's a big difference in performance between 720p30 low and 4k144 Ultra. I remember my 127% oc 670 could do bf3 and bf4 4k60 easy back when ya'll were stuck on 4k30 display ports held back by PlebVision TM

CPU: Ryzen 2600 GPU: RX 6800 RAM: ddr4 3000Mhz 4x8GB  MOBO: MSI B450-A PRO Display: 4k120hz with freesync premium.

Best ones for this are the fermi Tesla’s, C2050/2070/2090 since they have DVI ports built in.

Theyre just obscenely over specced GTX 470/480’s, the 2090 being closer to a 580 but with 6gb of vram which solves a lot of issues using an old fermi card has, since most of that is a lack of vram.

 

The C2090 is like a 580 on crack honestly, extremely capable even for being a fermi card.
