I think the last render engine Poser should use is Iray to be honest. The fact that it only works with Nvidia cards is a huge hinderance for those that don't have one. It should be using a render engine that can use either card.

It only works with Nvidia? Oh gosh, that's definitely a deal breaker I think.
Yes,which makes it impossible for some to use, expensive for others and if you've just got a new computer with a great AMD card you're still rendering to CPU. I still to this day don't understand the reasoning behind the decision to use Iray. I was lucky I had an Nvidia card, but a lot of people don't. Don't get me wrong - I like Iray and all, but most physically based render engines are all pretty much the same under the hood. The same principles work in all of them, so they could have gone with anything, but instead chose an engine that uses only one kind of card. Yeah, it's silly ;).
