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 24.0% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 0.8% in PassMark G3D (14,060 vs 13,949), so the answer here is pretty clean.

Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?

Arc B570 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: a 5nm process instead of 14nm, 18 vs 0 ray-tracing units, and a newer 2025 generation instead of 2017. That gives it the more rounded hardware package for newer games.

Which GPU is the better buy today?

Arc B570 makes the most sense to buy today. It is $280 cheaper on MSRP at $219 vs $499, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 129.7% (64.2 vs 28.0), so the value case lines up with the gaming result.
