So I hear a lot about software development moving to GPUs.. but does anyone know of any popular software that actually leverages computations on the GPU?

Here are a couple relevant links:
I assume you are talking about non-graphical applications — of course almost all modern games use the GPU in some way or another, as do graphics editors and video editing software.
That said, I don’t think there’s a single non-graphical “killer app” for GPU in wide consumer use yet, although there’s great success in niche applications such as cryptography.
