It's not in the release code yet.

You would have to compile from the evo branch and even then it's slow, mainly because it's an anti-GPU algorithm on purpose (designed to run only on CPU, or very wasteful non-profitable on GPUs). The newest code #270 is way faster and works on Vega or Polaris only, but "way faster" gets the same rates as a relatively slow and small (cheap) Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-4160 CPU @ 3.60GHz and is super nasty for the comparative watts used and heat created (and compared to what you'd get on CN-R or others).
