Estimated FPS at 1080p, 1440p and 4K
1080p: the Arc B580 leads by 7%. 1440p: the Arc B580 leads by 10%. 4K: the Arc B580 leads by 11%. These figures come from our performance model, calibrated against published benchmark averages. They are estimates for comparing the two cards, not results measured on your PC.
Estimated FPS in Popular Games at 1440p
| Game (settings) | Arc B580 | RX 7600 |
|---|---|---|
| Cyberpunk 2077 (High, no ray tracing) | ~55 | ~50 |
| Fortnite (High, DirectX 12) | ~90 | ~80 |
| Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 (High) | ~80 | ~70 |
| Counter-Strike 2 (High) | ~165 | ~150 |
Per-game figures scale each card's modelled 1440p average by how demanding the game is relative to our test blend, rounded to the nearest 5 FPS. Counter-Strike 2 is usually limited by the processor well before these numbers.
Verdict: Arc B580 or RX 7600?
The Arc B580 is slightly faster than the RX 7600: about 7% at 1080p, 10% at 1440p and 11% at 4K in our model. The gap narrows at 1080p because both cards are closer to what a typical processor can feed them, so the higher your resolution, the more of the difference you actually get.
The Arc B580 carries 12GB of video memory against 8GB on the RX 7600. 8GB is already tight at 1440p with high textures in the newest games, so the extra memory is worth more than it looks on a spec sheet.
At launch the Arc B580 was $249 and the RX 7600 $269, which works out to $3.6 and $4.3 per frame at 1440p. On those prices the Arc B580 is the better value, but street prices move every week, so check before you buy. The Arc B580 is rated for 25W more board power, which means more heat, more fan noise and possibly a bigger power supply.
Beyond raw speed, the Arc B580 brings XeSS 2 with frame generation and AV1 encoding, while the RX 7600 offers FSR 3 frame generation and AV1 encoding.
Bottom line: the Arc B580 is the better card outright, with no spec where the RX 7600 pulls ahead in a way that matters.
Pairing Either Card With a Processor
A faster graphics card only helps if the processor can keep up. Each card's own page lists the slowest CPU that will not hold it back at every resolution:
- Intel Arc B580: best CPU pairing and bottleneck
- Radeon RX 7600: best CPU pairing and bottleneck
- Check your own processor in the bottleneck calculator
Power supply: a common rule of thumb is the card's board power plus about 150W for the rest of a gaming PC, with 30% headroom. That points to roughly 450W for the Arc B580 and 450W for the RX 7600. Check the card maker's own recommendation too.
