This rollout allows you to choose the engine type and devices for GPU Rendering. Selecting the GPU devices from this rollout is equivalent to using the external Select devices for V-Ray GPU Rendering utility that is included with V-Ray (ocldeviceselect.exe) but allows the devices to be changed without restarting 3ds Max.

Selecting specific devices to render with can help if you have multiple GPUs and you want to leave one of them free for working on the user interface or you may want to combine your CPU and GPU together for Hybrid Rendering.
