    Best video cards for golf sim's

    Hi there, I am new to the SIM world . I would love to be able to afford the latest and greatest but I can't so I am enjoying my optishot for now. I have a 512 videocard and 4 gigs of ram. It seems a little choppy at times when the camera follows the ball or on flybys. What would be the best card optimize my computer and projector ? Right now the " auto best picture "is 1024* 724 I believe. Can I go HD with a Better card with optishot also what are you guys using for your sim's ?

    Thanks
    Stephen from Montreal

    I am using an overclocked Nvidia GTX 670 but you can get by with much less. AMD 7850s can be had for a good price now and should be plenty. It is difficult to predict what the future will require but for now 1gb of video memory should suffice.

    Suggest you google search comparison tables of catds and buy the quickest you can afford.

    I upgraded to a 4GB gt630 card and its amazing. They are $69 US from microcenter and have a $20 mail-in rebate. Hard to beat for the price!
