Not found this myself yet (like in VPro 11 Preferences / Video). In Render as, The Sony AVC Template / Custom settings / System > check GPU shows CUDA is available. Turned Render Using GPU If Available on in Video Encode Mode and made a test render with the free GPU-Z software's sensors showing this kind of behaviour.



Have not made any comparisons On/Off yet.
edit: with CPU only clearly faster in my case,
video card Cuda Compute capability 1.2.
Using VMS 11 Platinum build 283, Nvidia drivers 285.79 beta.

So this is only good for Sony format, there's no such option for MPEG-2?

From features in Product Page:

Support for GPU-accelerated AVC rendering using the Sony AVC plug-in.

In v11 release notes:
GPU-accelerated rendering performance will vary depending on your specific hardware configuration. If you have an older CPU and a newer GPU, rendering using the GPU may improve render times.
