Dragon and Windows Speech Recognition are two popular programs used for voice-to-text dictation and operation of a computer by voice. On my well appointed but 7-year-old laptop, both of these programs can hang, depending on the utterance. As I look for a new computer, it would be useful to know whether a dedicated GPU might provide some performance benefit for running them. I'm guessing not, but would like to be sure.


Meta: Presumably this question is not off-topic here, but if it somehow is, please advise where the question should be reposted.

Dragon Professional Individual doesn't use the GPU. The latest major release of Dragon Professional Individual was 6 years ago (Dragon Professional Individual 15 release in Aug. 2016) and since then Nuance has barely made any improvements to Dragon Professional Individual.
