Intel Arc A570M vs GeForce GTX 1070: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Intel Arc A570M vs GeForce GTX 1070
The Intel Arc A570M is significantly faster, around 27% ahead of the GeForce GTX 1070. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Intel Arc A570M is comfortable at 1080p, while the GeForce GTX 1070 is better matched to entry-level 1080p.
Power & Efficiency
At 95W against 150W, the Intel Arc A570M is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern Alchemist architecture on a TSMC N6 process is part of why it does more with each watt.
Generation & Longevity
The Intel Arc A570M is roughly 7 years newer than the GeForce GTX 1070 (Alchemist vs Pascal), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1070 brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Intel Arc A570M 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 GTX 1070 or Intel Arc A570M?
The Intel Arc A570M is the faster card by about 27%. With live pricing limited for this pair, base your decision on the spec differences above — particularly VRAM and power draw — and check current stock before buying.
