Java and HPC are not integrated atleast in for the NVidia cards. Dont waste
your time here is my recommendation. Focus your efforts on Intel.
Native Nvidia is easy to pickup and you can get a hello world up and
running in a day's time (downloading the sdk and environment takes time). I
would use Ubuntu 16 + 16Gb Ram 800MHz Ram (expensive ram), Associated
Hardware and a strong SMPS for this. Cost close to about 70K (without GPU /
HPC card)
