Sapphire Radeon RX 470 and RX 460 Graphics Cards Pictured

VideoCardz has published pictures of Sapphire’s upcoming Radeon RX 470 and Radeon RX 460 graphics cards, so it looks like the launch is getting close for these new Polaris 10 Pro GPU parts.

Rumor has it that this card will be priced slightly lower than the AMD Radeon RX 480 with many pointing at $179 as the suggested retail price. There is no reference design for the AMD Radeon RX 470 or Radeon RX 460 though, so the price points targeted by AMD will vary depending on the board partners designs and build costs. The AMD Radeon RX 470 looks like it will be cheaper to produce as the leaked images it showed that the RX 470 PCB uses a 4+1 phase power design while the RX 480 PCB uses a 6+1 power phase design. the board uses a single 6-pin PCIe power connector, but since it has less features enabled on the GPU it should have a TDP of lower than 150W. It appears that the Radeon RX 480 and Radeon RX 470 share the same Polaris 10 GPU, but

VideoCardz also has images of the Sapphire Nitro Radeon RX 460 and they believe that it will be available in 2GB and 4GB vanities. This card will use the Polaris 11 GPU and be priced closer to the $100 price point. If this card performs well at that low of a price point it will be a big hit for 1080P gamers and the eSports market.
