RX 460 4GB vs RX 470

[AidenDangle]

Im contemplating a gpu for my pc. I want to mainly play games like CS:GO, Rocket League and Overwatch. Not very demanding games but I may want to play games up to GTA V. That is the most demanding game I'd like to play. Now, I want to know, will buying a RX 470 be better than a RX 460 4GB for 1080p gaming? I don't know if it will make such a huge difference and would not like to spend an extra 50 usd if I don't need it.

Thanks,

mKL

a 470 will be better for games like GTA V but that also relies on the CPU power as well long as you have an i5 or equivalent though it should be fine. As for CS:GO etc. a 460 will be more than enough power, but a 470 wouldn't hurt if you decided to get that. In the end though it entirely depends on your choice of do you think it's worth it for something you might do.

A RX 470 will definitely be worth it. you can find some onsale that are only 150$ after rebate.

Thanks. I have an i7 and just wanted to know if I needed the extra power.

The 470 is miles better than 460 and should be the card for 1080p imo.
