I suspect there could be benefits if your workload involves alot of
decoding and the GPU only has a single nvdec unit on it.  Even if it's
less efficient to do it with CUDA, getting a graphics card with lots
of CUDA units could very well be cheaper than a card with multiple
nvdec fixed units on it (each of which might only be able to do 10-15
decodes depending on codec/resolution/framerate).
