OK got it down to 3 cards..

How exactly, given the 470 beats it mostly (according to what I have read ).

470 isn't even comparable coz it's too loud and hot. It's trash.

Ok, either you are immature or you are trolling, either way, goodbye.

Gigabyte 460 1gb or if you stretch a 470 on offer, dont be put off by fps rates in metro it's a very demanding game but will be playable just without all it's on high+.

Another vote for the Gigabyte.

I`ve had motherboard trouble, so I haven`t yet managed to really put it through it`s paces yet. However, what I`ve seen and (not) heard so far is good. The cooler is amazing, so quiet, yet keeping the GPU temp down to around 60C (try touching the heatpipes, and you realise how efficient the cooler is).

But you are talking about AVERAGE frame rate you are getting being around 30fps...what about minimum frame rate? It would suck if the frame rate drop to 15fps when you are trying to aim at the enemy

Minimum is always around 25 - 27 fps so still perfectly playable (if only just)
