The GTX 1060 is Nvidia’s third 16 nm Pascal based GPU. It follows last month’s release of the higher end GTX 1070 and 1080. The 1060 has a TDP of 120 Watts and its aftermarket variants are available right away alongside the reference Founders edition. Comparing the GTX 1060 and 970 shows that although the 1060 leads by 12% it is also currently more expensive. Nvidia rushed the release of the GTX 1060 to help retain market share that may otherwise have gone to AMD’s new Polaris based RX 480. Comparing the RX 480 and GTX 1060 shows that for pre DX12 games the 1060 edges ahead by 12%. Due to better hardware compatibility, the RX 480 is able to match the 1060 in DX12 games but this will remain a corner case until most games are optimized for DX12 (likely to take several years). The 1060 has the potential to become a hugely successful card provided prices settle appropriately. [Jul '16 GPUPro]

The Radeon RX 570 is the second in the line-up of AMD’s 500 series of GPUs targeting the popular mid-range market. The 500 series is based on the second generation Polaris architecture and is a minor upgrade over the 400 series. The RX 570 is around 10% faster than its predecessor, the RX 470. With 2048 cores, it is a cut down version of the RX 580 which is $30 more expensive and around 20% faster. At $130, the RX 570 offers superb value to gamers on a very tight budget. By dropping detail levels slightly below maximum the RX 570 can deliver 60 EFps in most of today’s popular games. If at all possible, we would suggest spending around $50 more for the 30% faster 8GB RX 590 which can comfortably hold 60+ EFps at 1080p with maximum details. [Nov '19 GPUPro]
