I don't believe it does, but I might be wrong. Also CUDA is fast, but last I checked (over year) the quality of the video encoded with CUDA wasn't great but not bad either.

buy new system all together & network with the old one.

Which one gives the most bang for the buck
Two of the CPU I listed above would outperform a sandy bridge when it comes to encoding. That would probably be best, although if you can get the encoder to work over a network that's just as good if the other systems have good CPUs.

More CPU cores/power is going to make the biggest difference when it comes to video encoding speed.
