Parallel Toolbox installed can solve speed problems. Additionaly a GPU can increase speed of code too. See: http://de.mathworks.com/discovery/matlab-gpu.html However I have a general question. If I have time consuming Matlab code which handles videos (without Parallel Toolbox installed), does it make a differnce if I have a CUDA-enabled NVIDIA GPU installed or not? Does the CPU do most of the job or is it a good idea to install a GPU anyway? Thanks

In general, the answer is no, without using the parallel computing toolbox matlab will not make use of your GPU. But there is a small exception, Matlab depends on the video codes installed on your system and if they decide to use the GPU, they will do so.
