Radeon RX 580 2048SP vs Radeon RX 570 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Radeon RX 570 beats the Radeon RX 580 2048SP in gaming performance.

Our database shows that both the Radeon RX 580 2048SP and Radeon RX 570 both have the same core clock speed. Despite this, the Radeon RX 580 2048SP has a slightly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In addition, both the Radeon RX 580 2048SP and the Radeon RX 570 have an identical TDP. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Radeon RX 570 over the Radeon RX 580 2048SP.
