HotHardware takes an in depth look at the new Intel Core i5-3470 quad-core desktop processor based on Intel's 22nm Ivy Bridge microarchitecture.
What does saving £15 on a CPU get you?
The Intel Core i5-3470 is a mainstream Ivy Bridge CPU that delivers solid performance with very few surprises (and limited overclocking opportunities).
While the i5 3470 will give system integrators some wiggle room on price, we're fans of sticking to the i5 3570K for everyone else.
