GeForce4 440 vs GeForce4 Ti 4200: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

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

GeForce4 440

2015

Why buy it

  • ✅Draws 33W instead of 450W, a 417W reduction.
  • ✅Measures 170mm instead of 175mm, a 5mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

  • ❌Lower PassMark G3D performance (5 vs 6).
  • ❌2015 hardware with 512 MB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • ❌
    135.7% HIGHER MSRP
    $469 MSRPvs$199 MSRP
  • ❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0.0 vs 0.0 G3D/$ ($469 MSRP vs $199 MSRP).

GeForce4 Ti 4200

2022

Why buy it

  • ✅+20% higher PassMark G3D performance.
  • ✅Costs $270 less on MSRP ($199 MSRP vs $469 MSRP).
  • ✅Delivers 182.8% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 0.0 vs 0.0 G3D/$ ($199 MSRP vs $469 MSRP).
  • ✅Better long-term bet: Ada Lovelace (2022−2024) on 5nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.
