Radeon RX 7700 XT vs Arc B570: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Radeon RX 7700 XT vs Arc B570
The Radeon RX 7700 XT is dramatically faster, around 88% ahead of the Arc B570. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 7700 XT is comfortable at 1440p, while the Arc B570 is better matched to 1080p.
Price & Value
Right now the Arc B570 starts at $242 GBP against $417 GBP for the Radeon RX 7700 XT. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the Radeon RX 7700 XT wins on performance-per-dollar by about 9%. The Radeon RX 7700 XT is trading below its $449 GBP MSRP — a genuine deal.
Power & Efficiency
The Arc B570 pulls less power (150W vs 245W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster Radeon RX 7700 XT draws more overall but extracts more performance from each watt — plan for a sturdier power supply if you pick it.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
With 12GB against 10GB, the Radeon RX 7700 XT has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the Arc B570's 10GB can fall short.
Generation & Longevity
The Arc B570 is roughly 2 years newer than the Radeon RX 7700 XT (Battlemage vs RDNA 3), 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 7700 XT 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 7700 XT?
The Radeon RX 7700 XT 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.
