The 470 looks a good price below:

I've a 4890 and umming and arrring but heavily leaning towards a twin cooler version of a GTX470![]()
But do you think the 470 is going to be a significant upgrade over my current 4890>? Cheers![]()
It is faster, but I'd hold out - the 4890 is still a good card, at least wait until the GTX580 and 69xx series come out. Three main reasons:
a) More choice. Not valid in this topic
b) Possibility of higher level cards price war, which might bring them within reach The 470 has already droped the GTX580 is not even aimed at that user base there fore price drops are more then prob be nothing
c) You may be able to pay a little more and get a much better card
Just get the new Gig 470 OC and ram it up to 900mhz for £240 and be done with it.
