Arc B570 vs Radeon RX 5700: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: Arc B570 vs Radeon RX 5700

The Arc B570 is noticeably faster, around 13% ahead of the Radeon RX 5700. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1080p.

Price & Value

The Arc B570 currently lists from $277 EUR, $149 EUR less than the Radeon RX 5700 at $426 EUR. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the Arc B570 wins on performance-per-dollar by about 74%. The Radeon RX 5700 still sits about $77 EUR above its $349 EUR MSRP.

Power & Efficiency

At 150W against 180W, the Arc B570 is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern Battlemage architecture on a TSMC N5 process is part of why it does more with each watt.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

The Arc B570 carries 10GB versus 8GB on the Radeon RX 5700. 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 6 years newer than the Radeon RX 5700 (Battlemage vs RDNA), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the Arc B570 brings Intel XeSS upscaling and AV1 encoding, while the Radeon RX 5700 offers AMD FSR upscaling and strong rasterization value. 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 B570 or Radeon RX 5700?

The Arc B570 is the all-round winner here — it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the Radeon RX 5700 if you find it at a steep discount.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Arc B570 better than the Radeon RX 5700?

The Arc B570 is noticeably faster, roughly 13% ahead. If your budget allows, it's the stronger pick.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the Arc B570 or the Radeon RX 5700?

Neither is a dedicated 4K card; both are best at 1080p. For 4K you'd want a faster GPU, or lean on upscaling.

Is the Radeon RX 5700 worth the extra $149 EUR over the Arc B570?

Only if you need the extra performance or features; on pure value the Arc B570 comes out ahead.

Does the Arc B570 have enough VRAM advantage to matter?

Its 10GB (vs 8GB) gives real headroom for 4K, heavy texture mods, and creative/AI work. At 1080p the gap matters less.
