GeForce 6200 OC Vs Radeon 9250

[Shadow Conception]

Yes, both are PCI, but I need to know whether the GeForce 6200 will present better performance than my current video card (look in sig). How much of a performance boost wll it give in games like Unreal Tournament 2004 and Half-Life 2? I'm also leaning towards a few other games, such as Doom 3, and maybe even Oblivion (on lowest settings).

Also, the GeForce 6200 OC requires at least a 300W PSU. My current is a 250W Dell stock. Will it work?

The 6200 for the win. And it should run just fine with you psu.

doom3 and oblivion on low settings should be ok on the 6200.

No personal experience, but a friend wanted to play COD2 on a really small budget, and i got him a $40 AGP 6200, and he was happy with it.

CoD2 played find (rare lag) on my AXP 1700+ with a GF3 Ti500. 1280x1152

OK, fx5200 is equal to radeon 9250 (or better as i have seen for myself), now even a 6200 64bit is roughly at LEAST 3 times quicker than a fx5200 (once again i tested them both)... So get the 6200 hands down over the radeon 9250. Plus ur comparing a dx9c card against dx8.1

Anyways to say it short the 6200 should be much faster.

save up and build a new machine. gaming on pci interface = waste of money.
