For rm300 ..6200 is ur best card. Because it can easily kill a 9550XT or even 9600XT. Check at the 3dmark thread. Highest and 2nd highest is 6200.

No need rivatuner le...MSI only produce 6200 with NV43 A4 (Locked) core.Even my ex 6200 also A4. Anyway..like dark said..it just a bonus if it can softmod. Oc it and guarentee kick 9600XT asre hard hard.

Take a look at the 3rd score on the board.sure it a 128bit normal 6200. It too low to consider softmoded..and too low to have gddr3.

low yat 82, If u flash 6200 with softmod bios...i mean the bios that unlock 6600 feature except the pipeline...it will have even higher price/performence ratio. And rmb that 9600XT engine was design last 2-3years ago..while 6200 is just not long ago. Sure newer tech have more advantage over old tech.

Actually...if a normal 128bit 6200 with a good cooling..pump the core to 600mhz like wat i do. 3dmark2003 sure increase like mad. Even 550mhz is enuff..default is only 350..and only give u 4k score.

Aopen do produce A1 and A2 core..but it kinda too late to grab it now.

I not sure how good is Nv44 core..but i know that Nv43 core very ocable..can easily increase the core from 350>550-600.

Check under Riva Tuner Power user . Change the script. Btw..i think Nv44 not that ocable. Nv43 is cripple down from 6600 core. Since 6600GT can handle 600mhz with 8pipe ..so of course 6200 can do 600+ for core with 4 pipe..since it colder with 4 pipe disable.

Dont look my score . Look at the 3rd and 2nd....i sure 3rd is on normal 6200 128bit. 2nd seem highly OC.

Btw ..6200TC is totally different from 6200 i would say. TC ver is alot slower..perhaps a 100-125% slower i mean. The only thing that benefit Nv43 vs Nv44 core is the max clock after OC. NV43 is design for 6600GT..therefore..it capable to do at least half of 6600GT Performence after OC if you using the normal 128bit Ver like MSI. If 6200 with GDDR2 or GDDR3..it actually 6600LE with no SLi. 6200TC have different tech compare to Nv43 core because a 6200 on all condition can guarentee a 4.5k 3dmark2003 score if u have at least a amd proc running at 2.0ghz and above.
I do few test with my old 6200..running it at various speed include 350/500 to see the 3dmark2003..and at 500/600 (9600XT speed) ,It doing around 5.5k and above while 9600xt at the same clock doing 4.3k.

Something that OC a very little. Core speed was default with 4Pipeline..and Mem 500>550.

Hmm...Perhaps...after you install the driver...You change ur driver to 6600LE in the device manager..den..use riva tuner lock the 4pipeline if the option is available.
Even the question sound stupid..but i sure it not imposible yet.

6200CT is using ddr3 too and have all 6600GT feature unlock except the 4pipeline. The 3dmark2003 score is 1.5k below 6600GT due to lower pipe.
6800 and Nv 7 Series..all of course on GDDR3.

Actually it no longer in production. Perhaps less den 1000piece around. It because at rm400 with GDDR3...it kill a 6600 easily. Clock at 550/1050 with 4 Pipeline already give you 7.5k 3dmark2003 which is 1.5-2k below 6600GT. I wonder why didnt didnt call it 6200GT. Btw...6200CT is called 6600LE now.

I not sure which bios..but some 6200Bios hidden feature like temp sensor and Z optimization is unlock with bios. Not the 4pipeline.

Flashing bios..not deadly. Rmb get a PCI card 1st. Anything wrong..reflash till okay.

Yup..perhaps you can try 6200CT bios by colourful. Google for it. IT also unlock the temp sensor features if your card is base on Nv43.

Get ur chainsaw ready..and mod A64 stock cooler on it. And put a delta or vantec tornado 70mm on it. My previous 1..i put low noise Delta 80mm on it.

Wow..the Powa of 8Pipe. Mine running at 600/1050..only get 7.7k with 4 pipe. But mine is A4 core...which cant softmod..and the PCB is 6600GT type.

Erm...mine is on GDDR3 2.0ns with full 6600GT PCB except 4pipeline.

That time....the popularity of 9550/9600 making many user doubt that Nvidia 6 series low end can stand chances fight with it. So less 6200 user.

Honestly...500-550mhz for core not high enuff. As it using Nv43 core..it should capable what 6600GT core can do..and even higher due to only 4pipeline. 8Pipeline = More heat.
So if a 6600GT can do 550-600mhz on core..so 6200 should capable to do more den 600mhz . My old 6200..doing 600mhz on core..on stock cooling. Perhaps..we can blame the stock cooling for current 6200 is not good enuff. Put Zalman fatality on it..and see what it can do.

Fillet, There is no more 6200CT in production already. It being phase out 1/2 years ago if i not mistaken. The reason is..the price is almost like 6600 with DDR1 that time.

9550GE ..can do 550/510 on watercooling..something lidat..and..the score will be 4.1-4.2k max if u have good system. While default 6200..do 4.5k easily.

It seem the system benchmark for 6200 on 300/550 and 450/650..the cpu is bottlenecking it. my previous test 6200 300/550..on venice 2.76ghz (306*9) DDR500 5-2-2-2.0 BH5..give me 4.5-4.6k 3dmark2003.
