Analysis: AMD Radeon Pro 570 vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The benchmark data places the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER and AMD Radeon Pro 570 in completely different performance strata. In the two directly comparable tests recorded in the database, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER wins both outright, and the margins are staggering.
In Geekbench OpenCL, the RTX 4070 SUPER scores 172,795 against the Radeon Pro 570's 27,702. That is a 523.8% advantage, meaning the NVIDIA card delivers more than six times the compute throughput in this workload. The gap is even wider in Geekbench Vulkan, where the RTX 4070 SUPER posts 205,624 versus 31,974 for the AMD card, a 543.1% lead. These are not close contests by any stretch; the RTX 4070 SUPER is in a different league entirely for raw GPU compute.
The average benchmark score tells a similar story. The RTX 4070 SUPER averages 43,223 across its recorded tests, while the Radeon Pro 570 averages 33,207. That puts the NVIDIA part at roughly 30% higher on average, though the head-to-head deltas are far larger because the two cards share only OpenCL and Vulkan as common test workloads. The RTX 4070 SUPER also sits at the 83rd percentile among all GPUs in the database, versus the 78th percentile for the Radeon Pro 570.
Looking at the GeForce card's nearest rivals in the database, it is essentially tied with the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 24 GB (43,262, a 0.1% difference), the GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile (43,268, 0.1%), and the Quadro M6000 (43,301, 0.2%). The RTX 4090 Mobile is 1% higher at 43,667. This places the RTX 4070 SUPER in a cluster of high-end desktop and mobile parts, all within a narrow band of average scores.
The Radeon Pro 570's nearest rivals are all mobile or professional GPUs with similar average scores: the GeForce RTX 3050 Mobile at 33,170 (0.1% higher), the T550 Mobile at 33,161 (0.1% higher), the P104-100 at 32,982 (0.7% higher), and the T600 Mobile at 32,849 (1.1% higher). The AMD card is competitive within its own tier, but that tier is far below the one occupied by the RTX 4070 SUPER.
In the Geekbench OpenCL test specifically, the RTX 4070 SUPER's 172,795 dwarfs the Radeon Pro 570's 27,702. In Vulkan, the NVIDIA card's 205,624 is more than six times the AMD card's 31,974. Every measured comparison favors the GeForce part, and no test in the database shows the Radeon Pro 570 ahead.
The Verdict
The data is unambiguous: the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is the superior GPU by every metric recorded in the database. It wins both head-to-head benchmarks, holds a higher average benchmark score, and sits at a higher percentile among all GPUs. The Radeon Pro 570, while a competent part for its era, cannot match the RTX 4070 SUPER in any measured workload.
Who should pick the RTX 4070 SUPER? Anyone whose work or play depends on raw compute performance in OpenCL or Vulkan. The 523.8% and 543.1% deltas in those two tests mean that applications leveraging these APIs will see dramatic performance improvements. The card's 83rd percentile ranking also places it among the top tier of GPUs in the database, with an average score of 43,223 that puts it in the company of the Quadro M6000 and RTX 4090 Mobile.
Who should pick the Radeon Pro 570? The data suggests very specific scenarios. Its average score of 33,207 and 78th percentile ranking are respectable, and it is competitive with the RTX 3050 Mobile and T550 Mobile, all within 1.1% of each other. If the workload is limited to the Radeon Pro 570's strengths, particularly in systems where its integrated form factor and lower power draw are priorities, it remains a viable option. But for pure performance, the RTX 4070 SUPER is the clear choice.
The RTX 4070 SUPER also carries a launch MSRP of 599 USD, which the database records as its official launch price. The Radeon Pro 570 has no recorded launch MSRP. Neither card is currently in production, as both are marked end-of-life in the database.
Architecture Differences
The two GPUs come from different eras and entirely different design philosophies. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is built on the Ada Lovelace architecture, using the AD104 chip manufactured on a 5 nm process at TSMC. It packs 35,800 million transistors into a 294 mm² die, for a transistor density of 121.8 million per square millimeter.
The AMD Radeon Pro 570 uses the older GCN 4.0 architecture with the Ellesmere chip, built on a 14 nm process at GlobalFoundries. It contains 5,700 million transistors on a 232 mm² die, yielding a density of 24.6 million per square millimeter. The RTX 4070 SUPER has more than six times the transistor count on a slightly larger die, a direct result of the newer manufacturing process.
Memory configurations differ substantially. The RTX 4070 SUPER has 12 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 192-bit bus, delivering 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth. The Radeon Pro 570 has 4 GB of GDDR5 on a wider 256-bit bus, but its bandwidth is only 217.0 GB/s. The NVIDIA card has over twice the memory capacity and more than double the bandwidth.
Compute resources are heavily skewed toward the RTX 4070 SUPER. It has 7,168 shading units, 224 texture mapping units, and 80 raster operation units. It also includes 56 ray tracing cores and 224 tensor cores, features the Radeon Pro 570 lacks entirely, as its specification lists no RT or tensor cores. The AMD card has 1,792 shading units, 112 TMUs, and 32 ROPs.
Clock speeds and resulting throughput also favor NVIDIA. The RTX 4070 SUPER runs at a base clock of 1980 MHz and boosts to 2475 MHz, with memory at 1313 MHz (21 Gbps effective). The Radeon Pro 570 has a 1000 MHz base and 1105 MHz boost, with memory at 1695 MHz (6.8 Gbps effective). Pixel rate for the NVIDIA card is 198.0 GPixel/s versus 35.36 GPixel/s for AMD; texture rate is 554.4 GTexel/s versus 123.8 GTexel/s. FP32 compute is 35.48 TFLOPS for the RTX 4070 SUPER versus 3.960 TFLOPS for the Radeon Pro 570, an approximately nine-fold difference.
API support differs as well. The RTX 4070 SUPER supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The Radeon Pro 570 supports DirectX 12 (12_0), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.3. The NVIDIA card supports a newer DirectX feature level and a newer Vulkan version.
Power and physical characteristics also diverge. The RTX 4070 SUPER has a 220 W TDP, is dual-slot, uses a single 16-pin power connector, and requires a 550 W suggested power supply. It measures 267 mm in length, 112 mm in height, and 42 mm in width. The Radeon Pro 570 has a 150 W TDP, is an integrated form factor (IGP), uses no power connectors, and has no suggested PSU listed. Its dimensions are not recorded in the database. The NVIDIA card uses PCIe 4.0 x16, while the AMD card uses PCIe 3.0 x16.
Release dates show the generational gap: the RTX 4070 SUPER launched on January 16, 2024, while the Radeon Pro 570 launched on June 4, 2017.

Where Each One Wins
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER: The data shows this card wins every recorded comparison. In Geekbench OpenCL, it leads by 523.8%; in Geekbench Vulkan, by 543.1%. Its average score of 43,223 places it at the 83rd percentile, tied with the Quadro M6000 and RTX 4090 Mobile. Applications that leverage DirectX 12 Ultimate, Vulkan 1.4, ray tracing, or tensor cores will benefit from the RT 56 cores and 224 tensor cores. The 12 GB GDDR6X memory and 504.2 GB/s bandwidth make it suitable for memory-intensive workloads. The 5 nm process and Ada Lovelace architecture deliver 35.48 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, nearly nine times the Radeon Pro 570's 3.960 TFLOPS. For any task that stresses OpenCL or Vulkan compute, the RTX 4070 SUPER is the definitive choice.
AMD Radeon Pro 570: The recorded data shows no benchmark wins for this card. However, it has specific attributes that suit particular use cases. Its 150 W TDP is lower than the RTX 4070 SUPER's 220 W, and it requires no power connectors, making it easier to integrate into systems without dedicated power wiring. The IGP form factor means it can fit where a dual-slot card cannot. Its 78th percentile ranking and average score of 33,207 put it in the same performance class as the RTX 3050 Mobile and T550 Mobile, within 1.1% of each. For workloads that are compatible with its GCN 4.0 architecture and DirectX 12 (12_0) feature level, and where the PCIe 3.0 x16 interface is sufficient, the Radeon Pro 570 remains a functional option. But the data offers no scenario where it outperforms the RTX 4070 SUPER.
