GPU Acceleration on Windows is available with the latest InDesign 2025(v20.4.0.052). Please update to the latest InDesign via the CCD app to get this feature.
The minimum system requirements for using GPU Acceleration on
- Windows are: Monitor with a display resolution greater than 2K
- GPU card with at least 1GB vRAM.
Note on GPU Acceleration: High-resolution monitors are becoming the standard. With the high monitor resolutions, it is getting difficult for the CPU to handle the rendering. This is where the GPU comes into play. Rendering on high-density displays is best handled by the GPU. GPU acceleration makes the rendering of the documents faster while zooming, scrolling, and panning. The enhanced performance from using the GPU in InDesign powers features like Animated Zoom, which make zoom actions smooth and animated.
Based on our internal tests, we found that GPU acceleration provides better performance when the monitor's display resolution is…

Indesign is "supporting" hiDPI-Displays (4k etc.) on Windows, but has no GPU acceleration at all AND running on a single CPU core – making 4k support completely useless as the screen output is soooo slow.
I start to think they have driven away all competent developers or even lost source code for that part of the program, and just can't update it anymore, trying to hide that fact for as long as possible.

An error occurred while saving the comment this is such a pain in 2023, i feel uncomfortable starting indesign (my day-to-day program!) as it feels so much slower than any other application i'm using due to the lack of support for multicore (and GPU acceleration).
At least, please, do the obvious things like multicore support for PDF exports ... 1 core per page, or at least please one core per document export? anything?
it's so ridiculous by now, i'm looking forward to visit this page every year just to see everyone again ... hi folks, nice to see you again - see you again next year!
(oh and by the way: one requirement of indesign 2025 is a multicore CPU ... now let's all guess whether indesign 2025 uses more than one single core to expert a 200 page PDF file ... you know ... one page is an independent unit of information that can be calculated on its own. don't be fooled though ...)
