Intel Arc B570

Evaluating the true value of Intel's new Arc GPUs is not as straightforward as it should be. On one hand, if paired with a powerful CPU, the GPUs perform well. On the other hand, those shopping for a budget GPU are unlikely to have high-end CPUs like the Ryzen 5 7600 or better. So if you're running a Ryzen 5 5600 or slower CPU, opting for a competing GPU like the Radeon RX 7600 ensures better overall performance.

The Intel Arc B570 does well as a budget 1080p graphics card, but if fails to live up to the standards set by the Arc B580. The trimmed clocks and cores aren't the problem, it's the reduced memory and bandwidth that holds the B570 back.

The Intel Arc B570 provides the same kind of value as the Arc B580. But despite offering a similar price-to-performance ratio, it has a tougher time maintaining 60 fps when pushed to its limits. This means if you want to play demanding games like Cyberpunk 2077 or Black Myth Wukong, the B570 will really start to struggle.

For its price, it's genuinely excellent, especially for getting you a card capable of ray-traced gameplay, but for just a little bit more, you can get a lot better with the B580.

The Arc B570 packs an attractive 10GB VRAM buffer at a low price, but it struggles to provide tangible value relative to its Battlemage sibling and rival graphics cards.

Taken in isolation, the B570 has all the makings of a solid entry-level GPU, and it's particularly pleasing to see the 10GB framebuffer in this market segment. However, it needs a more aggressive price to step out from the B580's shadow, while the pricing situation in the UK is even more problematic.

The Arc B570 GPU is a perfectly capable graphics card for 1080p and some 1440p gaming. It's capable with AI workloads as well, and XeSS 2 with Frame Generation will surely find its way into more games sooner than later, improving the value of both B570 and B580 cards even further. If Intel had its partners knock roughly $20 off the price, this product would make a very compelling case for itself at $199.

When all's said and done, the B570 is a robust choice, delivering around 85-90 percent of the B580's performance in the vast majority of games that we tested, both with RT enabled and disabled. That tends to put it beyond the likes of the RTX 4060 and RX 7600, its two closest category rivals, though the significantly more expensive RTX 4060 Ti 8GB remains out of reach.

By EuroGamer on

For $30 extra, I'd still lean toward the B580 if you can find it at that price. The extra performance and extra RAM are worth paying a little more for. But if you're trying to assemble a decent gaming system for somewhere between $500 and $700, and if it stays as cheap as it's supposed to be, the B570 is a better answer to the RTX 4060 than anything AMD has been able to put out so far.
