In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce4 Ti 4200 are marginally better than the Intel G43 Express Chipset.
The G43 Express Chipset was released over three years more recently than the GeForce4 Ti 4200, and so the G43 Express Chipset is likely to have far better driver support, meaning it will be much more optimized and ultimately superior to the GeForce4 Ti 4200 when running the latest games.
Both GPUs exhibit very poor performance, so rather than upgrading from one to the other you should consider looking at more powerful GPUs. Neither of these will be able to run the latest games in any playable way.
The GeForce4 Ti 4200 has 128 MB video memory, but the G43 Express Chipset does not have an entry, so the two GPUs cannot be reliably compared in this area.
The GeForce4 Ti 4200 has 4 Shader Processing Units but the G43 Express Chipset does not have an entry, so the two GPUs cannot be reliably compared in this area.
The G43 Express Chipset requires 24 Watts to run but there is no entry for the GeForce4 Ti 4200.

| Mini Review | Intel G43 Express Chipset comes embedded on the Core 2 Quad/Core 2 Duo CPUS and features an Integrated GPU called Intel GMA X4500. Due to its characteristics (e.g. Shared Memory) the performance is very limited but might be enough to play today's games at low settings excluding, however, very demanding games like Metro 2033 or The Witcher II, that are unplayable, even at the lowest settings. | GeForce4 Ti 4200 is part of the GeForce4 GPUS released by NVIDIA in 2002. Only compatible with DirectX 8.1 or less and with a max memory of 128 MB, it can't play today's games. Still, games before 2004 should be fully playable at max settings. | |||
