GeForce GTX 1060 3GB vs GeForce MX570 specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB graphics card is better than the GeForce MX570 in our tests.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB has a significantly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. In addition, the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce MX570 has a significantly lower TDP at 25 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB at 120 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB is better than the GeForce MX570.
