CUDA, Compute Unified Device Architecture, is a parallel computing platform and programming model invented by NVIDIA. It harnesses the power of graphics processing unit (GPU) to improve computer performance. The CUDA platform is powerful for it enables direct access to CPU's parallel computational elements and virtual instruction set.
CUDA has been adopted by thousands of applications. Now it has over 500 million CUDA-enabled GPUs working in compute clusters, supercomputers, notebooks and workstations. Many famous companies including Adobe, MathWorks, Autodesk, ANSYS, and Wolfram Research are using this technology to make full use of the power of the so-called sleeping giant - GPU.
As the development of display card, the performance of GPU becomes more and more powerful, and even surpasses the performance of CPU in some fields. So it will be a great waste of GPU if it is merely used for image processing. So NVIDIA released the CUDA technology, which expands functions of GPU greatly.
Since it was introduced, CUDA has caught Aiseesoft Studio's great interests and attentions. Our programmers redesigned our products for CUDA and improve the video encoding & decoding performance tremendously. Then you can enjoy a furious conversion speed on your computer with a CUDA-enabled GPU.
Tested by our programmers, the converting speed of the software with NVIDIA® CUDA™ technology is 6X higher than the old software. The graphic below shows all data in details.

NVIDIA NVENC is another powerful video encoding technology developed by NVIDIA since CUDA. It was introduced with the Kepler-based GeForce 600 series in March 2012, which could use NVIDIA graphics card to encode the stream rather than CPU. When using dedicated hardware for video encoding and decoding, the CUDA cores and system CPU are free to run other compute-intensive tasks. Compared with the CUDA-based or CPU-based encoders, GPU-based NVENC can provide higher quality video encoding.
Screen recording
NVIDIA NVENC acceleration can help you to record smooth screen activity in high video quality. The recorded video will keep exactly the original image quality. In addition, NVENC will only take very low CPU usage. You are able to improve the recording ability by using the GPU of the graphics card.
Convert video to other formats
Besides HD video recording, NVENC also can assist you to convert video to other formats. It enables you to convert the target video in high speed, with a high compression ratio, and in high quality.
Live Streaming
NVIDIA NVENC enables you to achieve Live Stream with high definition image quality smoothly. It has the capability to take low resources usage and provide high video quality.
Play game and record gameplay
With the powerful NVENC acceleration technology, you can easily get a fantastic gaming experience. Moreover, it allows you to record HD gameplay video. And the whole recording process won't affect players' game experience.
