Our verdict

The Arc B580 Graphics Card takes the performance lead with a 4% higher overall score, driven by its more shader cores, 12 GB of memory, and 12.8 TFLOPS TFLOPS of compute power. In gaming benchmarks at 1440p, it delivers roughly 14% more frames per second across demanding titles like Alan Wake 2 and Black Myth Wukong.

However, the Arc B580 Graphics Card tells a compelling value story. At $249 versus the RX 7600 Graphics Card's $269 price tag, it costs 8% less while delivering performance that's only 4% behind. Its 12 GB of memory is still more than enough for 1440p and even 4K gaming in most titles.

Our recommendation: for the majority of gamers targeting 1440p or even 4K with upscaling enabled, the Arc B580 Graphics Card is the smarter purchase. The RX 7600 Graphics Card only makes sense if you need the absolute maximum performance for native 4K ray tracing, professional 3D rendering, or AI workloads where the extra VRAM and compute power provide a tangible advantage.
