Preview lagging while using effects

Hey everyone! I need some help figuring out what would be the best hardware to run BCC continuum transitions and effects so the preview doesn’t lag. Not sure if I need a better graphics card or maybe it’s an issue with the CPU.
I’m editing 2k footage. When an effect comes in, the preview lags so bad that I can’t even see if it’s on time. The only way is to preview in quarter which still lags but not that bad. When I check my performance tab in the task manager it shows the CPU is increasing up to 70% and the graphics card is staying at 5%. So seems like the card is not even being used by the effect. Checked the supported graphics card section on BCC website and my card is not even on the list. Is it really true that BCC continuum doesn’t support my 1050 or higher? Or maybe it's an issue with Vegas?
Would appreciate any help.

If the lagging is related to BCC shouldn’t you be asking in their forum? I personally never had luck with their plugins to play smoothly in Vegas 10-15 and that was with a GTX580, R9 290 and even now with the Fury X.
