Ok... there's no need to bump your threads, specially after just 1 hour has passed.
You should always use hardware and switch to software only when necessary, you have a DX10 card so use the Direct3D10 (hardware) option by default. The hardware mode uses the GPU mostly but also the CPU can be a bottleneck in that mode, the software mode uses only the CPU to render stuff and well it needs a graphics card to show the video output anyways
