For a list of cards supported by the latest driver, the user is better off referring to nvidia's documentation. Looking at the docs for the current driver leads me to believe that GeForce 6000 series cards are the oldest supported by this driver (GeForce 5x00 series is supported by the 173.14.xx driver and older still GeForce2/3/4 by driver 96.43.xx). We (ELRepo) haven't packaged older nvidia drivers (yet) but we can certainly look into that if there is a demand.
