'NVEnc->Hardware->Only use encoder' offers some filters which either are really using the nvenc/nvdec chip or at least the gpu.
Not that 'Only use encoder' will disable Vapoursynth/Avisynth support, but you can combine these, by enabling 'NVEnc->Misc->Misc->DirectSynth Loading', but those filters when then only be applied after the Vapoursynth filtering, you can't use them in the middle of it. Without 'DirectSynth' enabled only enable 'Only use encoder' if your input can be decoded by the NVDec chip.
If you 'just' want to use the gpu, multiple filters offer CL/GPUOpenCL options which allow to use hardware acceleration, but be sure to check the Vapoursynth Preview to make sure your driver setup and gpu support them.
Quality wise, hardware based filter support usually can be a bit less accurate than software filtering, but the difference usually is neglectable.
