That's a great result for the aging GeForce GPU as it means it was good for around 60 fps at 1080p using the medium quality settings and then 70 fps with low. Starting with Assassin's Creed Valhalla we see that at 1080p the GTX 1070 is around 15% faster than the RX 580 and around 10% faster at 1440p. Just to make sure nothing's changed in that time, we'll be comparing the GTX 1070 head-to-head with the RX 580 8GB in 15 games at 1080p and 1440p using a range of quality settings.īefore we jump into all the blue bar graphs, a few quick notes on the test system.Īll testing has been conducted on our Ryzen 9 5950X test system using 32GB of DDR4-3200 CL14 memory and the latest available display driver, so the results are going to be entirely GPU limited. In a normal market, that's a laughably bad deal, but today it's actually decent and it certainly beats buying a RX 580 for the same money, especially given that model was selling brand new for ~$150 about two years ago. The GTX 1070 launched in mid 2016 with an MSRP of $380 and today you're paying roughly that price for a used model. However, if you're willing to spend what should be RTX 3060 Ti money ( $400) on an old GeForce GTX 1070, that means you could get to enjoy all the latest and greatest games using respectable quality settings. As ridiculous as that sounds – and it is – this is a decent deal and makes the GTX 1060 one of the cheaper and better value graphics cards you can pick up at the moment.
Later we moved on to the much more affordable GeForce GTX 1060 6GB which could comfortably be had for around $300, or $50 above the MSRP set 5 years prior. Most recently it seems to be going back down, so something to watch. It all started with the Radeon RX 580 8GB which was $300 when we started recommending it earlier in the year, but sadly by the time we got to it, the asking price had skyrocketed to $400-500 a piece. Over the past few weeks we've been checking out previous-gen graphics cards, which could be used as a stop-gap solution to the GPU shortage if you can get them second hand for a good price.
