What does this comparison mean?
The RTX 3060 12GB triples the RX 570 4GB's listed capacity and leads this workload. Both exact variants matter: using an 8GB RX 570 or 8GB RTX 3060 would change the memory comparison and require different source records.
RX 570 4GB has 4GB and RTX 3060 12GB has 12GB 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.
RTX 3060 12GB
The original RTX 3060 combines Ampere architecture with 12GB of GDDR6. It launched in February 2021 and is distinct from the later 8GB configuration.

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.
