See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

GeForce 6200A

2015

Why buy it

✅98.4% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (128 MB vs 65 MB).

Trade-offs

❌Lower PassMark G3D performance (4 vs 5).
❌2015 hardware with 128 MB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 0.0 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $149 MSRP).
❌32% higher power demand at 33W vs 25W.

GeForce4 MX 440

2020

Why buy it

✅+25% higher PassMark G3D performance.
✅Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 0.0 vs 0 G3D/$ ($149 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
✅GeForce 6200A is already obsolete for modern gaming, so GeForce4 MX 440 is the less risky modern option long term.
✅Draws 25W instead of 33W, a 8W reduction.
✅Measures 165mm instead of 168mm, a 3mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

❌Less VRAM, with 65 MB vs 128 MB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌2020 hardware with 65 MB of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.
