Hey Tom's,
I'm taking a CS class in college currently, and the school offered me Visual Studio 2010 to have, because that is what we use in class. Apparently, because I was bored and in my math class, I looked up the Nvidia 4xx series of GPU's and realized that my GTX460 would support GPU acceleration in Video Studio.
My question is how does it work? Is it automatic? Do I have to turn it on? What exactly is it speeding up?
This doesnt have to be in terms of Visual Studio. More just in general.
Just trying to learn a few things here.

EDIT: I think I was wrong in the GTX460 being eligible for GPU acceleration, but I would still like to know how it works.
EDIT2: Apparently, since the 460 has CUDA, it would work anyway. I'm getting more confused now.
