DL160 Hot Plug can hold a Quadro Graphics card?

Hi, I have reviewed all the documentation around DL160 G6 and it's not clear if the DL160 G6 can support the Nvidia Graphics FX 3700 option or any other Quadro option. We need to mount a Render Farm for Autodesk with this Server model and it's mandatory to install Nvidia Quadro. Does somebody install this graphics card in this Server?

Thanks and regards.

Well looking a the specs for the 160 Hot plug, you have one available PCIe 2.0 slot free, for a full height/Half length card, (http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/uk/en/sm/WF06a/15351-15351-3328412-3328421-3328421-3884343.html) but the FX3700 is a full length card, according to the pics that i found on the internet (http://www.cadalyst.com/hardware/nvidia-quadro-fx-3700-first-look-review-6370), so probably not.
