Techpowerup 470 strix review.


The ASUS RX 470 is slightly too expensive in my opinion though at $209, a better price would be $199 or $189 - if they fix that noisy cooler with a BIOS update. When I asked our head of news "What would you buy if you had $210?" he responded "I'd beg on the streets for $40 more if I have to and buy 1060.
 
£149.99 or go home AMD, you're drunk.


Hexus would agree, AMD charging too much.

The AMD RX 470 GPU is a logical progression in filling the sub-£200 graphics market with the next iteration of Polaris hardware. RX 470 takes a sensible approach in culling performance when compared to RX 480 - there's a drop in CUs from 36 to 32, a snip in the memory speed, and a reduction in the core speed.

What this means is there's a clear performance distinction between the two Polaris GPUs, enough so that partners can construct RX 470 OC parts and run a minimal risk of overlap. The inherent problem is that AMD is charging $179 for the base RX 470, which is too close to the RX 480 4GB's $199.

That takes us on to the Asus RX 470 Strix Gaming OC. It uses the DC2 cooler that's now enhanced by RGB lighting down one side. Cool and quiet, the 1,250MHz core speed looks decent on paper but, given how the card is setup, never manages to achieve that in our benchmarks, thus leaving it trailing 15 per cent or so behind an RX 480 4GB OC.

And while there's nothing intrinsically wrong with the Asus, AMD's pricing means that the RX 470 Gaming OC arrives at retail at £190, or just a tenner less than the manifestly faster Sapphire RX 480 Nitro 4GB.

Should AMD sort out the pricing structure of the RX 470 sensibly, to, say, £165 for a base GPU, then partners can have room to breathe with their aftermarket interpretations. As it is, the RX 470, despite being close to RX 480 in the financial stakes, is still the best GPU under £200 right now.
 
RX480 reference £220, most RX480 custom £240+, Sapphire give you a great deal on a 4GB RX480 and RX470 pricing is apparently horrible.

8GB RX480 £220, 4GB RX470 £165, those are the basic prices. If the Sapphire nitro £200 didn't exist(and not entirely sure why it does at that price), the RX470 price is entirely reasonable. Most of the custom cooled are what £180-190, where as most of the RX480 custom cooled are £240-270. Sapphire went out and decided to make a headline deal/price on the 4GB RX480, it makes that card an epic deal, not the RX470's a bad deal.
 
£160 at most but getting in the £200 price bracket I'd rather pick up a GTX 1060 for not much more :/ wow AMD yet again just fail to deliver oh and the sapphire model on the bit-tech review consumes the same power as a system with a GTX 1070 oh my..... amd you seriously can't be proud of this product can you?

even at around £180-£190 for a 4gb card I'd rather get this instead for an extra £40 and you get the 6gb Vram as well as the better performance, power consumption

The 470 at £190 was never going to be a good deal, ever.

The 970 and the 390 perform quite a bit better, and have been available for £240 for at least 12 months.

I repeat, this card manages to be WORSE perf/£ than a 380/X. How have AMD managed that, dm? Huh?
