GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER vs Arc B580: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER vs Arc B580

The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is dramatically faster, around 95% ahead of the Arc B580. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is comfortable at 4K with upscaling and native 1440p, while the Arc B580 is better matched to 1080p.

Price & Value

The Arc B580 currently lists from $331 EUR, $318 EUR less than the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER at $649 EUR. Despite being slower, the Arc B580 offers the better performance-per-dollar, so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The Arc B580 still sits about $83 EUR above its $248 EUR MSRP.

Power & Efficiency

On power, the Arc B580 is the gentler choice at 190W versus 220W. The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is more efficient per watt because it's faster, but its higher 220W draw means more heat and a bigger PSU.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the Arc B580 brings Intel XeSS upscaling and AV1 encoding, while the GeForce RTX 4070 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 B580 or GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER?

Choose the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the Arc B580 stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.
