GeForce RTX 3070 vs Arc B570: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 3070 vs Arc B570
The GeForce RTX 3070 is significantly faster, around 33% ahead of the Arc B570. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 3070 is comfortable at 1440p, while the Arc B570 is better matched to 1080p.
Price & Value
The Arc B570 currently lists from $299, $481 less than the GeForce RTX 3070 at $780. Despite being slower, the Arc B570 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~96% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The Arc B570 still sits about $80 above its $219 MSRP. The GeForce RTX 3070 still sits about $281 above its $499 MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
At 150W against 220W, the Arc B570 is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The Arc B570 carries 10GB versus 8GB on the GeForce RTX 3070. The extra 2GB helps at 4K, with high-resolution texture packs, and for content-creation or local-AI workloads that exhaust smaller buffers.
Generation & Longevity
The Arc B570 is roughly 5 years newer than the GeForce RTX 3070, so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce RTX 3070 brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Arc B570 offers Intel XeSS upscaling and AV1 encoding. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.
Which should you buy: GeForce RTX 3070 or Arc B570?
Choose the GeForce RTX 3070 if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the Arc B570 stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.
