What does this comparison mean?
RX 5500 XT 4GB delivers 13% more FPS than RX 570 4GB here while retaining the same 4GB memory capacity. This is an increase in measured benchmark throughput without a larger memory buffer, so an upgrade aimed specifically at fitting bigger textures or datasets needs a separate capacity check.
Both variants have 4GB of graphics memory. Memory capacity, board dimensions, power connectors and the price of a particular used card are separate from this benchmark. Compare the exact item before deciding whether to upgrade.
The two GPUs in context
RX 570 4GB
The RX 570 4GB arrived with AMD's April 2017 Polaris refresh. This entry covers the 4GB configuration, not the separately listed 8GB model.
RX 5500 XT 4GB
The RX 5500 XT 4GB launched in December 2019 with first-generation RDNA and GDDR6 memory. AMD offered both 4GB and 8GB versions, so the full memory specification matters when comparing a listing.

How the figures are compared
Both FPS figures come from the owner-supplied GPUsed benchmark dataset. GPUsed reports a continuous FurMark run at 1080p for its physical-card checks. The percentage compares the higher model average with the lower one using the original FPS values. Our rating uses a compressed scale, with the fastest GPU at 100; it is separate from the percentage difference. A benchmark result does not predict gaming FPS.
GPUsed reports its physical-card checks typically last 30 to 60 minutes while temperature and stability are checked. The owner supplied the model-level FPS workbook on 2 October 2026; this benchmark dataset was last reconciled 3 October 2026. Historical cards tested are separate from the number of FPS runs behind a model average. Full benchmark method.
