Other than a single slot why for...
This would be 10-13% better than a single slot 4670, but power consumption is up slightly enough to take that into consideration if not using it for gaming.
It would be more or less par with a 9600GT, 4830 or 9800GT, while idle watts are lower against those it's not enough to be a plus. Anymore if you intend to game this isn't enough while neither are 4830 or a 9800GT .
Then again if you’re contemplating some 3D performance in a card that can save the planet, the 4670 can give you both for this price and single slot if that what your hoping for.
Whenever ATI can get back to supplying the 4770 at the pricing everyone is eager for, this isn't even a consideration.

#9 That was a rhetorical question, I understand though you miss the point most the time. Your the kid who never shuts up, the answer to the question no one ever asked.

You being a kid or adult it doesn't matter, as my 11 year son's read at a higher grade level than you! (one at a 9th the other is at 11th)
There was nothing rhetorical about the question #7 posed.
rhetorical–adjective
1. used for, belonging to, or concerned with mere style or effect.
2. marked by or tending to use bombast.
3. of, concerned with, or having the nature of rhetoric.
As I tell my boy's don't use words you don't know the meaning of...
