Launched at the same time as the GeForce GTX 480, the 470 hasn't been as widely available. We did however manage to get hold of a test card and are able to bring you our thoughts.

A smaller version of the GTX 480, the GeForce GTX 470 has the same benefits, at least on paper: DirectX 11 compatibility, PhysX support and 3D Vision. Not as fast as the 480, has it also been able to cut down on noise and heat? Answers in our test!

Don't forget that all our test results (9 games, power consumption, heat and noise) are available in the graphics card face-off. You can for example compare the GeForce GTX 470 with the Radeon HD 5870. We also give a summary of overall performance of all cards tested in our performance index tables.
