AMD Announces RX 470 and RX 460 cards
- Thread starter ihatelag

Yup I had about £170 to spend on one today.
Not at £200.
Frankly right now I don't want to support AMD. These prices are stupid.
Like I said earlier, at £170 it would be the same perf/£ as the 380.
At £200, it's WORSE perf/£ than the out-going cards. Unacceptable.
The way the pattern is going it'll probably be £179 :/
Just Ordered the Sapphire Radeon RX 470 Nitro+ OC
The 4GB 480 Nitro is £11 more... why would you do this?

According to Sapphire and I repeat according to Sapphire's internal testing they are faster than RX 480 MBA's or as we know reference design RX 480 cards.
If this is the case then its not so bad price wise, but I was hoping they'd be £149-£179 and not £165-£229.
(no they're not 6+2, they're just 6)

They are landing Monday.
Thanks for the info!

They haven't reviewed it, but according to Techpowerup the reference 480-style cooler does much better on the 470, 11 dbA quieter, so it might be worth waiting until that £165 one comes in stock.
It's a sad day for people who spend £150 on their GPUs. There is nothing except the RX 460, which is a HD 7870 equivalent.
There are no good mid-range cards for £150 this gen.

Hopefully if the $:£ ratio gets better they might be able to get a basic RX470 4gb to hit the magic £150 mark.
Birthday present for myself, the 480 nitro pre-order would arrive too late for it. For the sake of a few fps it doesnt bother me that much. (game @ 1080p so the difference is minor, from the reviews I checked.)
Also wanted the slightly lower power usage then the 480.
