GTX 460 to 470?

[Zeebedy]

I have RMAed my graphics card today (quite efficient as the guy at OC said the new SB boards are in stock) so I killed two birds with one stone...

My faulty GPU is an EVGA GTX 460 and what im wondering is should I just get a replacement or take a plunge of 40-50 pounds more and upgrade to a GTX 470. Will it be a jump big enough to notice performance difference?

Get a 560 Ti if you're upgrading from a GTX460 and still want nvidia, other choise is HD6950 or GTX570 but 570 is 250 or so. Dont upgrade otherwise.

Though you know, that ASUS GTX 480 at 560 prices is looking very tempting if you ask me.

Most working 460 1gb models can be overclocked close to 470 speeds, but if you are looking to add £50 and upgrade; then the 560ti would be a good choice imo.

If you want to stick with the green team, how about this one;

Otherwise, you could look at flashing a 6950.
