Pipes not unlockable

XFX GeForce 6200 256MB GDDR2 AGP 8X Graphics Card PVT44AWANG
XFX GeForce 6200 256MB GDDR2 AGP 8X Graphics Card PVT44AWANG

Pros: small, somewhat overclockable, makes my small form-factor dell at my office think it's a gaming machine

Cons: not pipe-expandable like some other 6200 cards (more fyi, than con...)

Overall Review: Note that this card uses the 44 chipset and not the 43, making it the "TurboCache" model. Some 6200 cards use the same 43 chip as in the 6600 which means that they can be overclocked to open up to the same number as pipes as the 6600 (i.e. it's really a 6600 in disguise). However, this card is NOT one of these as it sports the newer, 44 chipset. It can be overclocked, but the number of pipes can't be increased.
