DEFINITELY the Sapphire HD6870!!!

It is better in most games and its newer.

Less power usage.

Personally I would go for the 570, its faster, and provides a better upgrade plan
if you ever decide to SLI/ Crossfire.

The GTX 470 is 5% faster than HD 6870 and comparable with a GTX 560 Ti
I would definitely go for GTX 470 if it's in a good condition, it's used right ?

lol dude..

Do you notice it says 'rating' chart? How is that a benchmark???

Only way to easily compare is for example Frames per Second. One cannot go on mysterious 'rating'.

Think and read more before you post, it's not a shame to learn.
The link i provided is based on Games have been tested on Both cards, it compares it via the FPS term, the better GPU gives a higher FPS (Frames Per Seconds)
The links you provided are based on people's opinions and thoughts, no real world benchmarks provided or proven.

One of the links you provided, one member of overclockers say

check again mate the gtx 470 is a little faster than the hd6870
