Quick Answers

So, is Arc A380 better than GeForce MX570 A?

Yes, but this is not really about a huge raw performance gap. The broader synthetic picture is also very close at 6,301 vs 6,208 in G3D Mark. The bigger reason to prefer Arc A380 is the overall package: you are getting no meaningful modern upscaling stack.

Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?

Arc A380 is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting more VRAM at 6 GB instead of 4 GB and a 6nm process instead of 8nm. That extra memory headroom makes it the safer pick for newer games, heavier textures, and higher settings over time.

Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?

Arc A380 can still make sense if you find it at the right price, especially around $149 MSRP. Arc A380 is still the smarter buy for most people, though, because the raw performance is close while the overall package is cleaner. Arc A380 is about $151 cheaper on MSRP at $149 MSRP versus $300 MSRP, and you are getting 1.5% higher G3D Mark. Moving to $149 MSRP gets you and no meaningful modern upscaling stack.

Is GeForce MX570 A still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

Yes. GeForce MX570 A is still a strong gaming card in 2026: it is still comfortable for 1080p and decent for 1440p, though 4K is more situational. Price is really the swing factor here. If you find it at or below $300 MSRP, it remains a very sensible buy. Arc A380 is still the safer recommendation for most fresh builds because it offers a cleaner overall package with no meaningful modern upscaling stack.
