However when using medium or high quality settings the Geforce 6200 TC experiences a huge 78% reduction in performance and was unplayable at all resolutions. Although the Geforce 6200 TC has UltraShadow 2 Technology it doesn't seem to be helping the performance of the Geforce 6200 TC with this game."

Aurora Watching is a fairly slow moving game anyway and the Geforce 6200 TC delivered a playable performance at 1024x768 using medium quality settings which is good for a video card in it's price range."
