Analysis: Intel Arc B570 vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti AD104
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The Intel Arc B570 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti AD104 occupy different positions in the database. The Arc B570 carries a full set of recorded benchmark results across multiple test suites, while the RTX 4060 Ti AD104 has no benchmark entries in the database, which limits direct comparisons to the available measurement data.
The Arc B570 posts an average benchmark score of 20,556 across its recorded tests. This places it at the 65th percentile of all GPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals in the rankings include the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile, which scores 20,534 and trails by 0.1%, and the Intel Arc A750, which scores 20,582 and leads by 0.1%. The gap between these cards is minimal, indicating that the Arc B570 sits within a tightly clustered performance band.
Looking at the individual benchmark results for the Arc B570, the strongest showing comes from the Geekbench Vulkan test, where it records 96,844. The Geekbench OpenCL test follows with 83,514. In the PassMark suite, the GPU compute test produces 7,281, while the G3D test delivers 14,195. The DirectX tests show a mixed picture: DirectX 9 scores 164, DirectX 11 scores 118, DirectX 12 scores 72, and DirectX 10 scores 65. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test records 2,649, and the PassMark G2D test scores 661.
Since the RTX 4060 Ti AD104 has no benchmark scores in the database, the head-to-head comparison relies on the architectural and specification data rather than measured performance deltas. The Arc B570's average score of 20,556 and its percentile position of 65 indicate where it stands relative to all tracked GPUs, whereas the RTX 4060 Ti AD104's percentile of 50 with an average score of zero reflects the absence of recorded measurements, not a performance result.
Architecture Differences
The two cards use different architectures from different vendors. The Intel Arc B570 is built on the Xe2-HPG architecture and uses the BMG-G21 chip, belonging to the Battlemage (Arc 5) generation. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti AD104 uses the Ada Lovelace architecture with the AD104 chip, part of the GeForce 40 generation. Both are manufactured on a 5 nm process at TSMC, but the similarities end there.
Transistor counts differ substantially. The RTX 4060 Ti AD104 packs 35,800 million transistors on a 294 mm² die, resulting in a transistor density of 121.8M per mm². The Arc B570 uses 19,600 million transistors on a 272 mm² die, giving a density of 72.1M per mm². The NVIDIA chip holds nearly double the transistor count on a slightly larger die, which points to a more complex design.
The compute resources diverge significantly. The RTX 4060 Ti AD104 features 4,352 shading units, 136 TMUs, 48 ROPs, 34 RT cores, and 136 tensor cores. The Arc B570 has 2,304 shading units, 144 TMUs, 80 ROPs, and 18 RT cores, with no tensor core count listed. Despite having fewer shading units, the Arc B570 contains more TMUs and ROPs than its competitor, which affects texture and pixel processing characteristics.
Clock behavior also differs. The Arc B570 runs at a base and boost clock of 2500 MHz, with memory clocked at 2375 MHz (19 Gbps effective). The RTX 4060 Ti AD104 has a base clock of 2310 MHz and a boost clock of 2535 MHz, with memory at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective). The NVIDIA card boosts higher, while the Intel card holds a higher base clock and faster memory clock.
Memory configuration separates the two clearly. The Arc B570 includes 10 GB of GDDR6 on a 160-bit bus, delivering 380.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The RTX 4060 Ti AD104 includes 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, delivering 288.0 GB/s. The Intel card provides more memory capacity and wider bandwidth.
Theoretical throughput figures reinforce the compute gap. The RTX 4060 Ti AD104 achieves 22.06 TFLOPS in FP32 and 22.06 TFLOPS in FP16 (1:1 ratio). The Arc B570 achieves 11.52 TFLOPS in FP32 and 23.04 TFLOPS in FP16 (2:1 ratio). While the NVIDIA card doubles the FP32 throughput, the Intel card edges ahead in FP16 performance.
Pixel and texture rates show a different balance. The Arc B570 records 200.0 GPixel/s and 360.0 GTexel/s, while the RTX 4060 Ti AD104 records 121.7 GPixel/s and 344.8 GTexel/s. The Intel card leads in both metrics, despite its lower FP32 figure.
Power and connectivity specifications also differ. The Arc B570 has a TDP of 150 W and uses a single 8-pin power connector. The RTX 4060 Ti AD104 has a TDP of 160 W and uses a single 16-pin connector. Both cards recommend a 450 W power supply and use a PCIe 4.0 x8 bus interface. The Arc B570 measures 272 mm in length and 115 mm in height, while the RTX 4060 Ti AD104 measures 240 mm in length, 111 mm in height, and 40 mm in width. Both are dual-slot cards.
Display outputs differ as well. The Arc B570 provides 1x HDMI 2.1a and 3x DisplayPort 2.1. The RTX 4060 Ti AD104 provides 1x HDMI 2.1 and 3x DisplayPort 1.4a. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4.
The Verdict
The database presents an incomplete comparison because the RTX 4060 Ti AD104 lacks recorded benchmark scores. The Arc B570 has a full suite of measurements and an average score of 20,556, placing it at the 65th percentile of all GPUs. The RTX 4060 Ti AD104 sits at the 50th percentile with no average score, which means no measured performance data exists for it in the database.
From the available data, the Arc B570 is the only card with verified performance results. Its nearest rivals, the RTX 3070 Mobile and Arc A750, sit within 0.1% of its average score, showing that its performance aligns with that specific tier of hardware. The RTX 4060 Ti AD104 cannot be ranked against it based on measurements.
The architectural data shows the RTX 4060 Ti AD104 has roughly double the shading units and FP32 throughput, but the Arc B570 counters with more memory, wider bandwidth, more ROPs, and higher pixel and texture rates. The Arc B570 also carries a higher FP16 throughput. These are specifications, not measured results, so the verdict from the data is that the Arc B570 offers confirmed benchmark performance, while the RTX 4060 Ti AD104's performance remains unmeasured in this database.

The Arc B570 also wins on ROP count, with 80 ROPs versus 48 ROPs on the NVIDIA card. Its pixel rate of 200.0 GPixel/s and texture rate of 360.0 GTexel/s surpass the RTX 4060 Ti AD104's 121.7 GPixel/s and 344.8 GTexel/s. The Intel card also holds a higher base clock of 2500 MHz versus 2310 MHz, and a faster memory clock of 2375 MHz versus 2250 MHz.
The RTX 4060 Ti AD104 wins on raw compute resources. Its 4,352 shading units more than double the Arc B570's 2,304, and its 34 RT cores nearly double the Arc B570's 18. The NVIDIA card also includes 136 tensor cores, which the Arc B570 does not list. Its FP32 throughput of 22.06 TFLOPS doubles the Intel card's 11.52 TFLOPS, and its boost clock of 2535 MHz edges out the Arc B570's 2500 MHz.
The transistor count favors NVIDIA as well. The RTX 4060 Ti AD104 contains 35,800 million transistors on a 294 mm² die, compared to 19,600 million on the Arc B570's 272 mm² die. The higher transistor density of 121.8M per mm² versus 72.1M per mm² indicates a more complex implementation.
The Arc B570 wins on physical footprint and power draw. It has a lower TDP of 150 W versus 160 W, and it uses a single 8-pin power connector rather than the 16-pin connector on the NVIDIA card. The Intel card is longer at 272 mm versus 240 mm, but the NVIDIA card is wider at 40 mm versus the Intel card's unspecified width.
Display output capability favors Intel. The Arc B570 offers DisplayPort 2.1 outputs, while the RTX 4060 Ti AD104 uses DisplayPort 1.4a. Both cards provide one HDMI 2.1 output, though the Intel version is labeled HDMI 2.1a.
The production status differs: the Arc B570 is listed as Active, while the RTX 4060 Ti AD104 is End-of-life. The NVIDIA card has a successor in the GeForce 50 generation, while the Arc B570's predecessor is Alchemist.
