This means that entry-level GeForce 6 cards, such as the GeForce 6200, are capable of displaying the same image quality as, say, the GeForce 6800 GT, albeit at much slower frame rates. The GeForce 6200 features four pixel pipelines, three vertex pipes, and a 350MHz core clock. While its processing power may pale in comparison with that of the 16-pipe GeForce 6800 Ultra, the GeForce 6200 can be had for one-fourth or one-fifth the price. Estimated retail prices will range from $129 to $79, depending on the memory configuration. The card will compete against the the Radeon X300 line of ATI cards, which are also four-pipe solutions.
