Any NVIDIA GPU that's presently supported by nouveau should be sufficient.
The GT 740M should be fine, but definitely test it out with nouveau first
to make sure that you can get it to work OK.

What kind of pre-existing compiler experience do you have? Do you have
concrete ideas on tackling this problem? As part of the GSoC application
you'll have to come up with a development plan, and find a mentor (who
ostensibly has to believe that you'll have a good chance of completing such
a project).
