GeForce 6200: specs and benchmarks
Aggregate performance score
GeForce 6200 provides poor gaming and benchmark performance at 0.10% of a leader's which is GeForce RTX 4090.
Summary
NVIDIA started GeForce 6200 sales 11 October 2004 at a recommended price of $39.99 . This is a Curie architecture desktop card based on 110 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at office use. 128 MB of DDR memory clocked at 0.28 GHz are supplied, and together with 128 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 8.8 GB/s.
Compatibility-wise, this is a single-slot graphics card attached via PCIe 1.0 x16 interface. Its manufacturer default version has a length of 190 mm.
