GeForce FX Go5700 vs GeForce Go 7200: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

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

GeForce FX Go5700

2010

Why buy it

  • +13.3% higher PassMark G3D performance.
  • 693.7% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (512 MB vs 65 MB).

Trade-offs

  • 2010 hardware with 512 MB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • 242.2% higher power demand at 219W vs 64W.

GeForce Go 7200

2014

Why buy it

  • Draws 64W instead of 219W, a 155W reduction.
  • More future proof: Kepler (2012−2018) on 28nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Lower PassMark G3D performance (45 vs 51).
  • Less VRAM, with 65 MB vs 512 MB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • 2014 hardware with 65 MB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
