AMD Radeon RX 570

The RX 580 might be the mid-range flagship of the latest GCN 4.0 set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most entry-level PC gamers. On the other hand, the RX 570 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 169. AMD ’s xx70 cards have always been defined by entry-level prices with performance that knocks on the door of mid-range graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the GCN 4.0 graphics card inside the RX 570, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend.

Spec for spec, this RX 570 leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the RX 470, by boasting 12.7 % more fps. Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RX 570 consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the RX 470 and it really justifies an upgrade.

Compared to its NVIDIA 's closest rival, GTX 1060 3GB, the RX 570 was -6.4 % slower. For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Spider-Man Remastered, Fallout 76, Overwatch 2, Apex Legends, Battlefield V at 60 fps to 71 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 64 fps.

For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Valorant at 98 fps to 98 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 98 fps. For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Valorant at 85 fps to 85 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 85 fps.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB

The GTX 1070 might be the mid-range flagship of the latest Pascal set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most entry-level PC gamers. On the other hand, the GTX 1060 3GB is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 170. NVIDIA ’s xx60 cards have always been defined by entry-level prices with performance that knocks on the door of mid-range graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the Pascal graphics card inside the GTX 1060 3GB, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend.

The GTX 1060 3GB is much more cheaper than the GTX 960 as it costs $ 170. Compare this to the GTX 960, which came originally at a price of $ 199. Meanwhile, the AMD closest equivalent card is the RX 480 which costs $ 400. Spec for spec, this GTX 1060 3GB leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the GTX 960, by boasting 67.6 % more fps.

The GTX 1060 3GB has 3 GB RAM compared to the GTX 960 's 2 GB video memory. In our synthetic benchmarks, the GTX 1060 3GB blows past the GTX 960 and, amazingly, even the GTX 970 as well.

Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, RX 480, the GTX 1060 3GB was 6.5 % faster. Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The GTX 1060 3GB consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the GTX 960 and it really justifies an upgrade.

For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play F1 2019, World War Z, Spider-Man Remastered, Overwatch 2, Battlefield V at 62 fps to 65 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 63 fps. For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Valorant at 101 fps to 101 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 101 fps.

For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Valorant at 88 fps to 88 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 88 fps.

RX 570 vs GTX 1060 3GB with i7-7700K vs i7-6700K at 4K and ultra vs ultra settings

AMD Radeon RX 570 / i7-7700K

For the most part, the RX 570 is still capable of playing modern games, but you would have to reduce settings to sustain those higher framerates. If keeping graphics quality settings closer to ultra or high is important, there are a few options for upgrades. It appears that the RX 570 is a more capable mid-range card that can play AAA titles at 1080p with 60 frames per second. The price/performance ratio is excellent for RX 570 against the competition in budget mid-range cards. With current 4096 MB RAM, the RX 570 can have very few memory-related bottlenecks in more modern games.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB / i7-6700K

At 1440p, GTX 1060 3GB can hit 50-60 fps on pretty much everything at ultra, just without antialiasing, less ambient occlusion and turned down shadows. It is clear that the GTX 1060 3GB is a significantly more capable high-end card that can play AAA titles at 1080p/1440p with 50-60 frames per second. The price/performance ratio is excellent for GTX 1060 3GB against the competition in budget mid-range cards. With regards to max load temperature, the GTX 1060 3GB 's cooling is excellent at keeping it cool and under control. With current 3072 MB RAM, the GTX 1060 3GB can have very few memory-related bottlenecks in more modern games.
