Quick Answers

So, is GeForce GTX 780 Rev. 2 better than Radeon Pro 570?

Yes, but this is not really about a huge raw performance gap. The broader synthetic picture is also very close at 6,500 vs 6,337 in G3D Mark. The bigger reason to prefer GeForce GTX 780 Rev. 2 is the overall package: you are getting no meaningful modern upscaling stack.

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

GeForce GTX 780 Rev. 2 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?

GeForce GTX 780 Rev. 2 is the smarter buy by a wide margin. GeForce GTX 780 Rev. 2 is about 116.3% more expensive on MSRP at $649 MSRP versus $300 MSRP, and you are getting 2.6% higher G3D Mark. Radeon Pro 570 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.

When does Radeon Pro 570 make more sense than GeForce GTX 780 Rev. 2?

Yes. Radeon Pro 570 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 newer architecture, lower power draw (120W vs 250W), and staying closer to $300 MSRP more than squeezing out the extra headroom of GeForce GTX 780 Rev. 2. The trade-off is that GeForce GTX 780 Rev. 2 currently gives you 2.6% higher G3D Mark. Radeon Pro 570 still holds the G3D-per-dollar lead, so the performance win comes with a real value premium.
