Arc B570 vs GeForce RTX 4060: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

Arc B570

2025

Why buy it

  • 6.5% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Costs $80 less on MSRP ($219 MSRP vs $299 MSRP).
  • More future proof: Xe2 (2024) on 5nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Lower PassMark G3D performance (14,060 vs 19,548).
  • No equivalent frame-generation stack like DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
  • GeForce RTX 4060 is the safer long-term pick here because the hardware is newer and the feature stack is stronger.
  • 30.4% higher power demand at 150W vs 115W.

GeForce RTX 4060

2023

Why buy it

  • +39% higher PassMark G3D performance.
  • Access to a newer frame-generation stack with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
  • Better long-term bet: Ada Lovelace (2022−2024) on 5nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.
  • Draws 115W instead of 150W, a 35W reduction.
  • Measures 240mm instead of 249mm, a 9mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than Arc B570 across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
Arc B570 is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 6.5% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. PassMark G3D leans toward GeForce RTX 4060 instead at 19,548 vs 14,060, so for this question the real-game FPS result matters more than the synthetic split.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 4060 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: the newer feature stack, with DLSS 3.5 Super Resolution (2023) and DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023), while Arc B570 is limited to no meaningful modern upscaling stack and no comparable frame-generation support and 24 vs 18 ray-tracing units. That still leaves it as the safer long-term option on hardware alone.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
GeForce RTX 4060 makes the most sense to buy today. It is $80 more expensive on MSRP at $299 vs $219, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 1.8% (65.4 vs 64.2), which is enough to swing the recommendation its way. Arc B570 still makes more sense if max raw gaming performance matters more than value.

Advanced Features (DLSS/FSR)

The clearest feature edge for the GeForce RTX 4060 is support for DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation. In games that support it, that can smooth out motion and lift perceived FPS. The Arc B570 does not have comparable native support in the same tier.The GeForce RTX 4060 gets NVIDIA DLSS, which still tends to look cleaner in motion. The Arc B570 leans on FSR, which is flexible and widely supported, but usually a bit rougher at the same settings.
