Between the Arc B580 and GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, the Arc B580 comes out ahead in memory bus and boost clock, while the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti wins on cuda / stream cores and ray tracing cores. Overall, the Arc B580 scores 56.2 and the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti scores 60.8 on our Mars Score.
Which should you buy?
The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti edges ahead on the Mars Score (56.2 vs 60.8), but the 4.6-point gap is small enough that the right pick comes down to which spec advantages matter to you.
Pick the Arc B580 if you care most about memory bus and boost clock. The biggest gaps in its favor are memory bus, boost clock.
Pick the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti if you push the hardware — gaming, on-device AI, heavy multitasking — and the extra compute headroom is worth the trade-offs. Its strongest claims are cuda / stream cores, ray tracing cores, 3dmark time spy, among others.
There are no meaningful ties on the headline specs — every popular-comparison metric has a winner.
Bottom line: there is no wrong answer here — match the spec advantages to how you actually use the product. The Mars Score parity tells you both are well-rounded; the differences are about trade-offs, not quality.
