GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs Arc B570: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs Arc B570
The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is significantly faster, around 24% ahead of the Arc B570. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1080p.
Price & Value
The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER currently lists from $810 AED, $494 AED less than the Arc B570 at $1,304 AED. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER wins on performance-per-dollar by about 99%. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER still sits about $111 AED above its $699 AED MSRP. The Arc B570 still sits about $1,085 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
VRAM favors the Arc B570 at 10GB versus 8GB on the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER — that extra 2GB matters most at 4K, with high-res texture packs, and for content-creation/local-AI work.
Generation & Longevity
The Arc B570 is roughly 6 years newer than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER (Battlemage vs Turing), 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 RTX 2080 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 B570 or GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER?
The GeForce RTX 2080 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 B570 if you find it at a steep discount.
