Brilliant HD gaming technology powered by the award-winning Polaris architecture
Following the launch of the game-changing Radeon RX 480 in June, AMD has unveiled the new Radeon RX 470, which delivers AMD’s renowned Polaris architectural DNA and an extraordinary value proposition to an even larger cross-section of the world’s most demanding gamers, with a starting SEP of just $179 USD.
Supercharged with true asynchronous compute, support for high dynamic range monitors and designed from the ground up for low-overhead APIs, the Radeon RX 470 delivers on the promise of uncompromised HD gaming with exceptional graphics performance and low power consumption.
“We are delivering the next chapter of the Radeon Rebellion with the new Radeon RX 470, a GPU which offers brilliant HD gaming and is packed with future-proof technology at an impeccable price,” said Raja Koduri, Senior Vice President and Chief Architect, Radeon Technologies Group, AMD. “We’ve defined the Radeon RX lineup with feedback from gamers and enthusiasts who use our graphics technology.

The Radeon RX 470 dramatically outperforms the previous generation in gaming with its 32 compute units, 2048 stream processors, and up to 4.9 teraflops processing power, yet typical board power is just 120 watts. This produces outstanding gaming with greater than 60 fps at ultra-settings on a wide variety of the latest game titles.
