Overview
The Radeon RX 570 is a mainstream Polaris card from AMD's 2017 RX 500 series, based on the Polaris 20 die and succeeding the RX 470. It delivers a meaningful performance step over the RX 560 and represents one of the stronger value propositions in the budget 1080p category at launch.
The RX 570 carries 4GB of GDDR5 on a 256-bit bus — a significant bandwidth improvement over the 128-bit RX 560 — with a TDP near 150W requiring a pair of power connectors. Built on the 14nm Polaris architecture, it supports DirectX 12, Vulkan, and AMD FreeSync, but does not include hardware ray tracing or dedicated AI compute.
Aimed squarely at smooth 1080p gaming across a wide range of titles, the RX 570 was a popular choice for mainstream gamers at its launch and remained widely used through several subsequent generations. Its 256-bit bus and shader throughput give it headroom beyond the entry-level cards, making it a practical option for 1080p gaming on a limited budget.
