Notes on 8 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, Board power: NVIDIA's table shows 165 or 160 W for RTX 4060 Ti; Tom's and TechSpot list 160 W for the 8GB model.
  2. 2NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, Recommended PSU: NVIDIA's 550 W minimum assumes a Ryzen 9 5900X-class system; your build may need more.
  3. 3NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, Power connectors: The card takes a 16-pin connector; NVIDIA includes an 8-pin PCIe adapter in the box.
  4. 4Intel Arc B580, DisplayPort version: Intel rates the DisplayPort outputs at DP 2.1 up to UHBR 13.5 (second output listed at UHBR 10).
  5. 5Intel Arc B580, Hardware encode: Intel's spec table also lists H.264 and H.265 (HEVC) hardware encode as Yes.
  6. 6NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, Card length: Founders Edition length; partner cards vary by manufacturer.
  7. 7Intel Arc B580, Card height: Intel publishes this dimension as the card's 'Width' (115 mm) alongside the 272 mm length.
  8. 8NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, Card height: NVIDIA labels this 'Width' (slot edge to card top); its clearance text cites 98 mm for the card.

Price and Value

The Intel card undercuts the competition significantly at $249, making it far more accessible for budget-focused builders. The GeForce alternative commands a much higher $399 price tag.

That substantial price gap gives the Arc B580 a massive advantage for buyers trying to keep total system costs down without sacrificing core feature sets.

Memory and Performance

The Arc B580 packs 12 GB of video memory across a 192-bit bus, delivering a memory bandwidth of 456 GB/s at 19 Gbps. In contrast, the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB relies on 8 GB of memory on a 128-bit bus with 288 GB/s bandwidth at 18 Gbps, though it counters with 4,352 shader cores and 22 TFLOPS of FP32 compute.

Gamers working with high-resolution textures will benefit from the Intel card's larger buffer and wider bus, while the NVIDIA card offers higher raw shader counts and a larger 32 MB last-level cache against the Intel 18 MB cache.

Power and Hardware

The GeForce card demands 160 W and a 550 W power supply, utilizing a 12V-2x6 power connector alongside an included 8-pin adapter. The Intel competitor requires a slightly higher 190 W board power and a 600 W power supply, using a standard 8-pin connector.

System builders should check their power supply capacity and cable availability to ensure compatibility before choosing either option.

Video Encoding and Display

The Arc B580 features two hardware encoders supporting H.264, HEVC, and AV1, alongside three DisplayPort 2.1 ports and one HDMI 2.1 port. The GeForce card includes one AV1 encoder, three DisplayPort 1.4a ports, and two HDMI 2.1a ports.

Content creators needing multi-codec encoding and modern DisplayPort connectivity will find more versatility in the Intel model.
