Arc B570 vs GeForce GTX 1080 Ti: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Arc B570 vs GeForce GTX 1080 Ti
The Arc B570 and GeForce GTX 1080 Ti post nearly the same score in our performance index, so neither holds a meaningful raw-speed advantage. Both are best suited to 1080p gaming.
Price & Value
The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti currently lists from $1,228 AED, $89 AED less than the Arc B570 at $1,317 AED. Despite being slower, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti offers the better performance-per-dollar (~7% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti still sits about $529 AED above its $699 AED MSRP. The Arc B570 still sits about $1,098 AED above its $219 AED MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
At 150W against 250W, 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 GeForce GTX 1080 Ti carries 11GB versus 10GB on the Arc B570. The extra 1GB 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 8 years newer than the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti (Battlemage vs Pascal), 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 GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 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 B570 or GeForce GTX 1080 Ti?
Choose the Arc B570 if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti stretches your money further for near-identical performance.
