Last week AMD introduced the new RX 470 and I took a look at XFX's fastest model, the RX 470 RS Black Edition. Well, today I'm going to follow that up and take a look at Sapphires RX 470 4GB Nitro. This will be my first look at one of the new 400 series Nitro cards and I'm excited to find out what Sapphire has going on. From looking through some of the feature lists I saw removable fans and RGB lighting but I'm most curious about the overall performance of the overclocked card and the cooling capabilities of the Nitro cooler. So today I'm going to take a look at the card, its features, and then test its performance in our GPU benchmark suite to see how it compares to the RX 470 from XFX. Considering how close the XFX came to the RX 480 in some of our tests Sapphire has their work cut out for themselves.
