Hello,

I have a couple of models of 6200 that I am looking at for my old Dell.

The main difference is the memory, the first with 256 MB and the other with 512 MB.

I would normally go ahead and grab the 512 MB card but some people have said that this card isn't equipped to handle that much memory -- because of its 64-bit interface -- and as a result it will perform poorer than with 256 MB.

Is this a valid concern?

Thanks.
 
For the price difference I would just get the 256MB. The 512 wont be slower, its just the chips not really fast enough to access that much memory and be beneficial to the cards performance.
 
i had a 6200. all the 512mb cards have 64-bit memory and all the 256mb have 128bit memory. get the 256mb
