Hi /g/, I recently found a craigslist ad for a 'NVIDIA Tesla M2070H 6GB GDDR5 Graphics Processing Unit' for a VERY good price. I was wondering if I could use this for gaming, seeing as how I'm poor and a 6gb gddr5 graphics card as an early christmas present would be a godsend. Please tell me what it is, what I can use it for, and suggest any other good affordable cards that one can buy,

You can but it will absolute shit for gaming sell it on eBay or something and then by a real gaming GPU you will get far better performance

What's it even used for? What can I sell it for?

GPGPU, they suck at rasterization etc. which is why they suck at gaming.
They're literally just a huge SIMD processor

What's the price and in what country?
Isn't it an efficient Bitcoin mining device ?

Used for rendering or any other double precision calculation (like dealing with large matrices in scientific work, i.e. hessian diaganolization)

not even close
you don't need 2x float for the bitcoin hash and most of the best mining programs are opencl-based, not cuda
