Cheap used graphics card for cuda acceleration in premiere pro 2018

I am upgrading an old HP Z400 workstation I bought for around 20 bucks and I'm wondering if either a gtx 660 or a 960 support cuda acceleration in the newest version of premiere pro. If not what would be some other decent used cards that do that I can pick up on eBay for under a 150 dollars and only take a single 6 pin power connector. I would prefer it to be an nvidia card.

Well if you want cuda nvidia is your only option actually :P It's closed-source stuff from nvidia and only runs on their hardware.

 

Anyway i would get something like a 960 as you suggested, or maybe a 1060 if you somehow find one that's reasonably priced. It's still relatively new and will get driver support for at least a few years. Something like a 660 is already quite old and nvidia cards don't age very well :/

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

Thanks Samcool, I kind of forgot about that with cuda but I meant just gpu acceleration in general. I am planning to pick up a 960
I just really need to make sure it works with cuda acceleration and is a decent budget card for editing since I do a lot more editing than gaming. I forgot to add this in my initial post but The Z400 has a proprietary 475 watt psu so the old way to upgrade would be rigging some of the pins for the mobo connector.  
I also would like to have a card with at least 2 gigs of vram and over a 1000 cuda cores and 4 display inputs.
