Kickass trading DELL server Tesla GPU on Linux

Let me know what you think of this combo for a high speed trading server to start with:

http://canadaserver.wix.com/canadaserver#!product/prd1/3673522191/dell-t5500-%2C-2-x-quad-2.93-%2C-72gb

https://www.amazon.ca/Tesla-C1060-Compute-Board-Retail-4gb/dp/B001H5V6LO <– very cheap on ebay ROUGHLY 12k threads each if 2 installed (2*12k=25k threads available!)

Should be compatible with RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux) but could you CentOS 7.x.

Total investment: 1K+2*400=$1800 CDN approx max

Notes:

Read about CUDA API v 7 here https://devblogs.nvidia.com/parallelforall/how-overlap-data-transfers-cuda-cc/

In Tesla video below, he said that each GPU takes 150w of power

Power Supply: 875W 88% efficient

Will it be sufficient to hold 2 Teslas at 150W each?

The drivers ‘could’ be compatible with CUDA 6.5-7.x?
