Buying advice

Which should you buy?

The Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB edges ahead on the Mars Score (54.1 vs 61.7), but the 7.6-point gap is small enough that the right pick comes down to which spec advantages matter to you.

Pick the Arc B570 if you care most about memory bus and cuda / stream cores. The biggest gaps in its favor are memory bus, cuda / stream cores, tdp.

Pick the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB 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 ray tracing cores, vram, 3dmark time spy, among others.

Both ship with comparable dlss, so those specs don't separate the two — focus on the differences below.

Bottom line: the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB is the safer default. The other model is the right choice only when its specific advantages line up with your priorities.
