Previews: GeForce FX 5600/5200 Ultra

Published by

Just got word from Matt Burris @ 3DGpu.com that he's posted his GeForce FX 5600/5200 Ultra preview. Update: Just got word from Dave Baumann @ Beyond3D that their GeForce FX 5200 & 5600 preview is up as well.

The 5600 Ultra is the successor to the Ti4400 and Ti4200, whilst the 5200 Ultra and non-Ultra are the MX's. As you can see, NVIDIA are no longer using the MX name for their mainstream/value cards. The beauty of the 5600 and 5200 cards are that they both support all DirectX 9 features, nothing has been cut out, so you can soon get a DirectX 9 video card for less than $100.
