GeForce GTX 1660 vs Radeon RX 570: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce GTX 1660 vs Radeon RX 570
The GeForce GTX 1660 is significantly faster, around 38% ahead of the Radeon RX 570. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.
Price & Value
The GeForce GTX 1660 currently lists from $59 GBP, $38 GBP less than the Radeon RX 570 at $97 GBP. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce GTX 1660 wins on performance-per-dollar by about 126%. The GeForce GTX 1660 is trading below its $219 GBP MSRP — a genuine deal. The Radeon RX 570 is trading below its $169 GBP MSRP — a genuine deal.
Power & Efficiency
At 120W against 150W, the GeForce GTX 1660 is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern Turing architecture on a TSMC 12nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The GeForce GTX 1660 carries 6GB versus 4GB on the Radeon RX 570. 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 GeForce GTX 1660 is roughly 2 years newer than the Radeon RX 570 (Turing vs GCN 4.0 (Polaris)), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1660 brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 570 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: GeForce GTX 1660 or Radeon RX 570?
The GeForce GTX 1660 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 570 if you find it at a steep discount.
