GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER vs Arc A580: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER vs Arc A580
The GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is noticeably faster, around 13% ahead of the Arc A580. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1080p.
Price & Value
Right now the Arc A580 starts at $259 EUR against $287 EUR for the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER wins on performance-per-dollar. The Arc A580 still sits about $80 EUR above its $179 EUR MSRP. The GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is trading below its $499 EUR MSRP — a genuine deal.
Power & Efficiency
The Arc A580 draws just 175W versus 215W for the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom. Its more modern Alchemist architecture on a TSMC N6 process is part of why it does more with each watt.
Generation & Longevity
The Arc A580 is roughly 4 years newer than the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER (Alchemist vs Turing), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the Arc A580 brings Intel XeSS upscaling and AV1 encoding, while the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER offers NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.
Which should you buy: Arc A580 or GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER?
The GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is the all-round winner here — it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the Arc A580 if you find it at a steep discount.
