Why This Product
Pro-grade, piece by piece
4K Simulation, Elevated
Powered by an Intel Core Ultra 5 225F processor and NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti graphics with 16GB GDDR7, the Performance Plus is engineered to run GSPro and FSX Play at 4K High settings with smooth, consistent frame rates.
Sharper textures, realistic ball flight, and detailed course environments — all running beautifully on your projector or display setup.
Efficient Dual-Fan Cooling
The SG3-5702TI features a dual-fan 120mm air cooling system that keeps temperatures controlled and noise manageable, even during extended play sessions.
Reliable thermal management means consistent clock speeds without throttling — so your simulator performs the same on swing one as it does on swing one thousand.
Fast Memory & Massive Storage
With 32GB of DDR5 6000MHz RAM and a 2TB NVMe Gen4 SSD, the Performance Plus loads courses in seconds, switches between modes instantly, and gives you plenty of space for software, updates, and replays.
No waiting around — every session starts fast and stays smooth from the first tee to the 18th green.
Connected & Multi-Display Ready
Built-in WiFi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 keep you connected wirelessly, while a full array of USB ports handles your launch monitor, swing cameras, and accessories without a hitch.
Run your projector and a side display simultaneously — the RTX 5070 Ti handles multi-display setups with ease.
Prebuilt & Ready to Play
The Performance Plus arrives fully assembled and tested — no building, no driver installs, no tech headaches. Turn it on, connect your projector and launch monitor, and start swinging.
Windows 11 Home comes pre-installed. A wireless keyboard and mouse are included so you're ready from the moment you unbox it.
Details & requirements
What you'll source locally
The enclosure frame uses standard EMT conduit pipes, which ship expensive — so you pick them up at any hardware store instead. A cut sheet with exact lengths is included with your order.
Tech requirements
- Dedicated graphics card (GTX 1070 or better recommended)
- Windows 10/11, 16GB RAM
- Stable internet for course downloads and online play
Shipping & delivery
Ships within the US only. Free shipping on orders over $100. Components may arrive in multiple shipments from different warehouses — we'll send tracking for each.
Returns & warranty
30-day hassle-free returns. Every component carries its full manufacturer warranty, and our team handles any warranty claims with you.
What Golfers Are Saying
Designed for professionals and enthusiasts running simulator software alongside multiple peripherals. Guaranteed compatibility with GSPro, E6 Connect, Trackman Virtual Golf, and FSX Play — purpose-built, not a generic gaming PC.
More affordable than Performance Max while still offering 4K capable specs. The “added power” entry point for professionals who need more headroom than the base model.
