Intel Arc B570 Review

The Intel Arc B570 is a budget Battlemage-architecture graphics card with 10GB of GDDR6 memory, a 2.5GHz graphics clock, a 150W TDP, ray tracing support, and a $219 MSRP.

Intel's still the underdog in discrete graphics, but the B570 undercuts everything else in our new lineup on price while still packing 10GB of VRAM, more than NVIDIA gives you on the 5060. 10GB of GDDR6 at $219 beats NVIDIA's 8GB RTX 5060 on paper for less money, that's a genuinely strong value argument if you're not tied to NVIDIA's software ecosystem.

More VRAM Than the Price Suggests

10GB of GDDR6 at $219 beats NVIDIA's 8GB RTX 5060 on paper for less money, that's a genuinely strong value argument if you're not tied to NVIDIA's software ecosystem.

The Driver Question

Intel's Arc drivers have improved a lot since launch, but they're still the newest entrant here, worth reading recent reviews for your specific games before committing if you're risk-averse.

Power Requirements

150W TDP, reasonable for the price tier, don't expect flagship efficiency but nothing demanding here either.

Comparison to Alternatives

Against NVIDIA's RTX 5060, also new to our catalog, the B570 offers more VRAM for less money, the tradeoff is Intel's less mature driver and feature ecosystem. Against AMD's RX 9060 XT 8GB variant (not carried in our catalog), the B570 is the more VRAM-generous budget pick.
