About G3D Mark

G3D Mark is a standard benchmark that measures graphics performance in real-world gaming scenarios. It simplifies comparing cards from different brands, where higher scores directly correlate with better fps and smoother gaming experiences.

Head-to-Head Verdict, Benchmarks, Value & Long-Term Outlook

This comparison brings together gaming FPS, raw graphics performance, VRAM, feature set, power efficiency, pricing context, and long-term value so you can see which GPU actually makes more sense.

GeForce GTX 1050 Ti

2016

Why buy it

  • Costs $160 less on MSRP ($140 MSRP vs $300 MSRP).
  • Delivers 114.7% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 45.4 vs 21.1 G3D/$ ($140 MSRP vs $300 MSRP).
  • Draws 70W instead of 120W, a 50W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than Radeon Pro 570 across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Poor future-proofing: 2016-era hardware with 4 GB of VRAM is already a legacy-tier option for modern games.

Radeon Pro 570

2017

Why buy it

  • 32.6% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • More future proof: GCN 4.0 (2016−2020) on 14nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Quick Answers

So, is Radeon Pro 570 better than GeForce GTX 1050 Ti?
Yes. Radeon Pro 570 is the better GPU overall here. You are getting 32.6% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and 0.2% higher PassMark G3D performance. It also comes from 2017 instead of 2016, which helps its case as the more complete modern gaming card.
Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting the stronger feature stack with no meaningful modern upscaling stack instead of FSR upscaling. That broader feature stack should age better as more games lean on modern upscaling and frame-generation support.
Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?
Radeon Pro 570 is the smarter buy by a wide margin. Radeon Pro 570 is about 114.3% more expensive on MSRP at $300 MSRP versus $140 MSRP, and you are getting 32.6% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and a lower G3D Mark (6,337 vs 6,350). GeForce GTX 1050 Ti really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.
When does GeForce GTX 1050 Ti make more sense than Radeon Pro 570?
Yes. GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is still an excellent gaming GPU in 2026: it is still comfortable for 1080p and decent for 1440p, though 4K is more situational. It makes more sense if your priority is lower power draw (70W vs 120W), future-proofing, and staying closer to $140 MSRP more than squeezing out the extra headroom of Radeon Pro 570. The trade-off is that Radeon Pro 570 currently gives you a lower G3D Mark (6,337 vs 6,350) and 32.6% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. GeForce GTX 1050 Ti still holds the G3D-per-dollar lead, so the performance win comes with a real value premium.
