How to use the new GPU accelerated avd?

Google has announced that the Android emulator finally uses the GPU, as written here

However, I can't find a tutorial of how to use it. I've tried to do some things and it just keeps crashing.

So far , I've tried to :

  1. Install the app on "...\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager\IntelHaxm.exe".

    1. Enable/disable the flag on GPU emulation for the avd.

    2. Restart eclipse and OS .

Is there anyone who have succeeded working with the new feature?

Enable CUDA optimization by going to the system menu, and select Edit > Preferences.

Click on the OK button to save your changes.

Simply access your BIOS (Settings -> Update and Security -> Recovery. Under the Advanced Startup section press 'Restart Now' and your pc will restart. The above screen should appear, press Troubleshoot -> Advanced Options -> UEFI Firmware Settings -> Restart.

The GPU emulation doesn't work very well at the moment:

I also didn't manage to run it due to the crash.

A simple instruction of how to turn it on can be found here: https://plus.google.com/108967384991768947849/posts/DSi3oAuNnS7
