Mmm i'd say 3-4 although with the exponential growth in complexity of games nowadays, that could quite easily shrink a year :( But thats the same for every GPU unfortunately, the 470 however packs some serious punch so it wont be giving up anytime soon.

Hmm methunks someones hijacked the rig I've just ordered! XD lol Exactly the same except I went for the Corsair 650W PSU following advice on reliability. Maybe worth looking at?
