low cost but fast video card recommendations for solidworks?

Anyone have any recommendations for consumer type video cards that are fast and stable with solidworks?


I'd like to second that request. I have a new Dell (XPS 730) with a lot of video memory, but the dual cards aren't playing well with SW 2007 (Student).

Well, fast, and stable enough at the time: I used to use midrange NVidia cards and use a prgm named SoftQuadro to kind of turn them into a Quadro card. Worked fine, but I do not know if SoftQuadro is still up to date. I do not do it at work anymore. But at home, I have a NVidia gaming card that's good enough for what I do there.

quadro 570/580 are about the cheapest workstation card you will find.. they retail for around 200 bucks..
