This is a "Show me the money" type of GPU acceleration speed test of a CUDA based video card used in Premiere Pro CS5 on a three year old workstation which has a Q6600 Intel Quad processor, 8GB RAM, 150 WD (10,00rpm) Raptor as the C:drive, no raid on editing drives, with a 320 scratch disk.

After this upgrade AVCHD fottage plays smoothly even when preview is set to "Full Resolution Playback".
Here is the vid;
