RX 470 Advice needed! Please help

[Comet89]

I have a couple of questions about the RX 470.

Firstly, I have a choice between Gigabyte 4GB, Sapphire Nitro + 4GB or the XFX 4GB Core edition which are all pretty much the same price (around £180). I can't decide which one to choose

Secondly, my current set up is a Dell XPS 8500 with a 460W PSU and intel i5 3350P (3.1GHZ). I have 14GB RAM.

Is my PSU ok to run the RX 470? I have read in many forums that it is more than enough due to the fact that AMD overestimates?

And will my CPU be a massive bottleneck? If so should I just get a GTX 1050 Ti?

Appreciate any feedback I could get!!!

Out of those three, the Sapphire NITRO+ is your best bet.

Further more, your specs are sufficient enough for an RX 470 4GB and you won't bottleneck.

Just make sure the RX 470 fits in your case.

no.. i5 is a good deal for rx 470.. 3350p is like i3 6100 in most cases but its enough.. For 1080p though an rx 470 will be usefull only maximizing every detail and AA.. if you have the money its very good.. but 1050ti will also be good (not everything ultra stable 60fps but high-ultra and avg over 60fps in most games). depents on the price.. personally i like 1050ti more due to its price but its up on you.. also having a freesync monitor could help your choice..

Thanks mate! Yeah the 1050 Ti is a lot cheaper but I only plan to upgrade once and I figured I will just go hard or go home haha. My display output is my LG TV in the living room (via HDMI). Does that make any difference? Sorry for all of these questions.

both cards have hdmi but be adviced that tv's have a high response time making them not suitable for fast paced games
this doesnt affect your choice though
