Nothing much has changed here if you're familiar with nVidia cards and Detonator Drivers. 44.03's were used for the review as seen below and here are a few shots of the properties to take a gander at.

Benchmarking

Unreal Tournament

DM Asbestos

Initially with no AA or AF enabled we see the 4200 pull out to a very strong lead in all resolutions. Quite impressive really. Then we quickly see the improved engine of the FX 5600 take over once we initiate 2x AA and 4x AF. nVidia's advance in AA and AF technology is readily apparent and moving to 4x/4x AA/AF shows the 5600 over twice as fast in some cases.
