NVIDIA GeForce Go 6250 vs NVIDIA GeForce Go 6600 vs NVIDIA GeForce Go 6200

NVIDIA GeForce Go 6250

► remove from comparison NVIDIA GeForce Go 6250

The NVIDIA GeForce Go 6250 is a low end laptop graphics card of the GeForce Go 6000 series. It is based on the 6200 and 6400 chip and offers a small amount of dedicated DDR graphics memory. Usually it is adverted with additional shared memory called TurboCache.

An advantage are the integrated PureVideo functions for decoding MPEG videos with the GPU (but not HD videos).

The performance of the 6250 is too weak for gamers. The power consumption should be relatively low, but not as low as integrated graphics cards offer.

NVIDIA GeForce Go 6600 is the mobile medium class of NVIDIA for notebooks. Its performance is good with normal current consumption. Games like Doom3 run fluently.

The PureVideo video engine supports the MPEG and WMV9 (also in HD) decoding of videos. > PureVideo Product Comparison

NVIDIA GeForce Go 6200

► remove from comparison NVIDIA GeForce Go 6200

The NVIDIA GeForce Go 6200 / 6250 / 6200 TE is the smallest version of the series 6 with own memory. It offers few own memory and fills the rest with main memory (called TurboCache). The video performance is sufficient only for not demanding or elder games, though many features are supported.

The heat development and the current consumption are low (but higher than with integrated graphics). For gamers too weak and for a office notebook too hungry for energy? In reality GeForce Go 6200 is somewhere between it.

The GeForce Go 6250 is a somewhat higher clocked version of the 6200.

The PureVideo functions enable the 6200 to accelerate the playback of MPEG videos (not in HD). > Comparison Table
