Gainward to launch 6200 AGP 512MB

“We are not talking about a Turbo Cache card as this marchitecture won’t work on AGP cards. So much memory comes from the fact that memory chips for 6200 are not that expensive and that it will sound cool to have cheap card with 512MB of RAM. It’s called Marketing. Most of the people I know still judge graphics card by the amount of memory included. It’s a very simple logic where the 512MB card is better than a 256MB one, in real life it’s not always the case as 6200 AGP 512MB won’t be faster than a 6600 GT with 128MB of RAM.”

Good ole marketing gimmicks. I would love to see in benchmarks if the 512MB version is ANY faster at all than the 256MB version. Read the posting here.
