I thought I saw a list of recommended graphics cards on the punchcad website but can't seem to find it any more. Can anyone help?

Punch products do not make use of graphics cards, I have run Shark FX on an Nvidia 840m laptop card, an Nvidia GTX 760 and onboard low end Intel chips and have seen no difference.

It seems to run on almost anything. However I've seen better graphics performance on Nvidia Quadro cards, although I suspect this is better drivers more than hardware. K2000D and K620's seem to work fine. A K620 isn't terribly expensive, although I suspect a good gaming card would work well too.

On my Lenovo Core I7 x64 laptop graphics are painfully slow updating. Cheaper intel chipsets tend to leave artifacts behind, as did some other lower end cards.
