I have the same problem with a GT240 based card. Other software is using CUDA (like Splash etc.). But not Sony Vegas 10 HD.
The “Magic Bullet” plug-ins make use of CUDA (so there is at least one benefit), but not Sony Vegas 10 HD. Another user reported that his GT220 based card didn’t work as well.
Frederic, if you get a reply from the Sony Support would you please post it here?
Thank you.
