Any guess on percentage frame rate improvement? They also supposedly made some graphic enhancments. I read one guy say the jaggies look less pronounced on the golfer's pants and the clubshaft.

Yes, jaggies are smoother. Frame rate is noticeably better. Hard to put a number on it before I test some more courses.

This stood out for me right from the start. Looks better that's for sure

The problem courses are still a problem. I tried a couple holes of Ross Hollow and the frame rate still chugs there.
