Notes

Lets start with the mainstream GeForce4 MX 440. NV18’s 500MHz memory bus compares very favorably to the older NV17 card from PNY, especially at high resolutions. In fact, at 1280x1024, the NV18 card puts down 12 percent more performance than the vanilla GeForce4 MX 440. Further, the NV18 board overclocked to 312/580MHz delivers nearly eight percent more speed.

The equivalent GeForce4 Ti 4200 NV28 card is an entirely difference story. At 1280x1024, where we’d expect a relatively heavy demand on the graphics card, there is a nearly imperceptible half percent difference between the comparably clocked Ti 4200 cards. At least overclocking is able to boost performance by roughly six percent.
