Optimal GPU selection for best results?

  I believe I read that Discovery Live's solvers are based on the capacity of the hosted GPU. Based on this idea, a more accurate solution/quicker convergence should occur with higher end GPUs.
  
  For the most part, if money is no object, what would be the best GPU for Discovery Live (quickest convergence and most accurate results)?
  For comparison, I'm currently running a Quadro K4200.

    Naresh Patre This question may be trivial, but I was wondering if the more CUDA cores a GPU has, the more efficient/accurate Discovery Live will be?

    DLiraLopez You will get much better results from graphics card having higher memory and CUDA cores
