I didn't do anything to the settings in Vegas to make it use GPU. I'm not on that machine right now so I can't check if there is a setting for it in the menu or if its automatically going to accelerate simply by being installed.

Haswell is great I think mostly in terms of power, but only about a 10% performance boost over Ivy Bridge, but I was building new, so I decide to wait until it came out since I wasn't going with a 6-core. I'll probably do that for my next build.

570 has been around a while but only has 480 cuda cores; you'd get double that with a 660.
The problem with the 600 series, it is a new chipset(Kepler), and the drivers aren't working for Sony yet, or at least wasn't when I checked last month.

The 4770k is the best cpu for encoding atm

Default rendersetting in Vegas Pro is "hardware if available" You can see it in taskmanager when you render. If the CPU is below 50% when rendering, its using the Nvidia card.
