Chip maker	AMD	AMD
Architecture
Architecture	GCN 4	RDNA 4
Shader cores
Shader cores	2,048	2,048
Boost clock
Boost clock	1,244 MHz	3,130 MHz (better)
Architecture
Architecture	Fourth-generation GCN (Polaris), 128 texture units, 32 ROPs and 5.7 billion transistors. AMD's retained support page is labelled RX 570 (OEM) and includes slower OEM clocks; the original retail baseline and both named MSI ARMOR configurations use the published maximum 1,244 MHz. Photo shows MSI ARMOR 4G, not an AMD reference board.	32 compute units, 64 ROPs; game clock 2530 MHz; 29.7 billion transistors
Manufacturing process
Manufacturing process	14 nm (PCWorld and Les Numériques)	–
Ray tracing
Ray tracing	No dedicated hardware ray accelerators	32 third-generation Ray Accelerators
AI cores
AI cores	–	64 AI Accelerators; up to 410 TOPS INT8 or 821 TOPS INT4 with structured sparsity
Upscaling and frame generation
Upscaling and frame generation	–	AMD FSR "Redstone" (including FSR 4 upscaling), AMD Fluid Motion Frames, Radeon Super Resolution
Cache
Cache	–	32 MB AMD Infinity Cache
Base clock
Base clock	AMD publishes a 926–1,168 MHz OEM range; the original retail baseline is 1,168 MHz (PCWorld). Both named MSI ARMOR boards publish up to 1,244 MHz core frequency without a separate base figure.	–
Memory
Video memory
Video memory	4 GB GDDR5 or 8 GB GDDR5	16 GB GDDR6
Memory bus
Memory bus	256-bit (better)	128-bit
Memory bandwidth
Memory bandwidth	224 GB/s or –	320 GB/s
Memory detail
Memory detail	MSI ARMOR 4G and 8G both specify 7,000 MHz effective GDDR5. AMD publishes up to 224 GB/s for the GPU, but MSI does not state bandwidth separately for either capacity; the 8 GB configuration therefore omits it.	GDDR6 at up to 20 Gbps
Connections and power
Board power
Board power	150 W (better)	160 W
Interface
Interface	–	PCIe 5.0 x16
Display outputs
Display outputs	3 × DisplayPort, 1 × HDMI and dual-link DVI-D on both MSI ARMOR boards. AMD lists DisplayPort 1.4 HDR and HDMI 4K60 support, but DVI as No; partner outputs differ.	DisplayPort 2.1a, HDMI 2.1b (number of ports depends on the card)
Power connector
Power connector	One 8-pin on both MSI ARMOR boards	1 × 8-pin
Recommended power supply
Recommended power supply	450 W	450 W
Size (reference card)
Size (reference card)	246 × 130 × 39 mm and 622 g for both MSI ARMOR 4G and 8G; MSI publishes PCI Express x16 without a generation in these datasheets	–
Video encode and decode
Video encode and decode	H.264 and H.265/HEVC encoding and decoding; HDMI 4K60 support	H.264, HEVC and AV1 encode and decode
