Around GTX 950 levels of performance with a low TDP.
Not brilliant performance but a good budget card nonetheless

What utter nonsense. On what planet is 70W considered a lot of power? Because it's not this one. It's completely unrealistic to expect anything more than this kind of level of performance from a slot-powered card with a mere 75W to work with. And before you even start with bringing up the slot-powered GTX 950 that Asus released, let's not forget that that card had severely depressed performance compared to a regular 950.
The idea that this consuming 70W is bad and that it "runs hot" is absolute nonsense. The worst kind of rabid fanboy bluster. As is suggesting that this performs akin to a 750 Ti. It does not. It actually performs almost identically to the R7 370/7850, which as you'll see is akin to the slot-powered 950 up there, which is a more expensive card (and which people were hailing as some remarkable feat of engineering a couple of months ago, yet suddenly when AMD produce a near-identical card it's a disaster... strange that).

RRP is $109 which is £100 including VAT at current exchange rates (109 / 1.3 * 1.2).

Its pretty much the AMD version of the GTX 950: Same performance and power draw
And nowhere did AMD say it was $100, simply a budget card, which it is
Newegg have it for $115 which is £88. Add tax and £98 is fair for UK pricing

$100 dollar card not £100, it's not worth £50, 70w, running hot, can't match the previous gen NVidia 950, the 270x is better and the NVidia 750ti is about on the same perf, lol i'll pass.

RRP is $110
Your much better off stepping up to a 470 far more powerful card

Performance of these looks really disappointing. It's like a previous-gen card.

Looks poor, should be 70 brand new

Why?
RRP is $115 = £88 + UK Tax = £98
GTX 950 still costs £125 which is on par with this

Its a massive disappointment not even worth looking at, 70w for that performance and heat with no overclocking headroom is poor, would never condone with a purchase. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgCTyrQ05og

So you'd rather pay £30 more for the same performance?

Not sure what your referring to maybe the 950 but you'd be wrong pls look at the video post I left, pls get things straight b4 posting.
The 750 ti uses 15W less for around the same perf b4 you overclock which you can't do on the 460, most of the oc is already on the card so an oc sapphire 460 vs stock 750ti is about a %1 loss for the 750ti but then has all it's oc to add.(card dependant)
