GTX 470 or GTX 460?

[andrern2000]

Lately, the price of GTX 470 has dropped noticeably. In Newegg there are lots of 470s priced at $250, something like $40 dollars more than MSI Hawk GTX 460 which is priced at $215 @Newegg.

Is it now still worthy to buy a GTX 460, or just save more money and go for 470?

I'd also would like to ask a recommendation of GTX 470 with cool and quiet performance if any of you know.
Thanks.

The 470s and 480s are droping in price because 570/580s are taking their place. I think it's a good time to get a 470, if it is enough for you.

There are cheaper options like:
