It's not on the list at http://ambermd.org/gpus/#supported_gpus, which I presume is drawing a distinction between hardware revision/compute capability 2.1 vs 2.0 [e.g. for the GTX 465] per the guideline on that page. However, v2.1 *does* appear to provide double precision, and the GTX560 which *is* OK'd for Amber12 appears to actually be v2.1 as well (ref https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus).
