True in absolute terms, but it might still be worthwhile doing that anyway. You're still offloading computation to the GPU, and the data transfer isn't going to tie up all of your CPU's cores. While you're sending data across, the rest of your CPU could be doing other tasks it's better suited for (branchy code, virtual function calls, recursion...).
