I was hoping you wouldn't read that. I hit delete as soon as I realized I was being rude. Sorry about that.

  It was much more ironic than it was rude, because yes I was referring to the video, as you would surely know because you also watched it... right? Anyway, I can understand the supposition that GPUs are good for audio processing because they have oodles of processing power and memory bandwidth, however this will hurt latency because there's at least one extra bus hop (assuming the GPU can DMA to the sound card, which I doubt, and if not it's two extra hops!) and it's not like modern multicore CPUs lack throughput for audio purposes. tl;dr They claim some latency advantage and then use GPU acceleration as an example; as someone doing lots of GPU coding I find that contradictory because of the extra bus transfers.
