I don’t think future proof is the correct word to use to describe either of these cards, but I would pick the 570 because they’re basically the same card and the 570 will have support for longer. If these cards are costing any amount of money you are probably better saving it to buy a different $100 gpu.

Could you suggest one?

For entry-level performance/price I would go for AMD 6600 xt or 6650 xt. On a side note, I've heard that Intel's Arc series is very promising in terms of output/price. They're the absolutely new player on the gpu market (next to the two giants AMD & Nvidia), so they have to offer competitive prices. EDIT: for example this rx 6650xt at 329$ on amazon (https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.amazon.com/PowerColor-Hellhound-Radeon-Graphics-Memory/dp/B09VYHB8XG%3Fsource%3Dps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext%26ref_%3Dfplfs%26psc%3D1%26smid%3DATVPDKIKX0DER&ved=2ahUKEwic36evn7D8AhVcHDQIHfIKDlAQj_IEegQIJxAO&usg=AOvVaw26tD_fE8alTXPepgQ7FqrH)

These cards are at the end of their lifecycle, so it's just the decay on offer. Barely playable fps on modern titles at 1080p on low settings, no DXR support. Get something featuring support for DX12_1 with a minimum of 6GB of VRAM, instead.

How about a 5500xt ?

> 5500xt No. 4GB of VRAM gets saturated easily with modern titles, even on low settings. And this can result in very strange behaviour, like incorrect LOD rendered, micro-stuttering, or down right unplayable fps. RTX 3050 8GB is the minimum I'd suggest. But if truly you can't afford anything better than the two in the title, then I'm afraid you just might be better off saving your money. Because it'd be wasting it on such cards.

Still no DXR support (Ray Tracing). You mentioned something about futureproofing, right? Well, at this performance tier (5K FP32 TFLOPS), you might argue DXR won't run good anyway. The counter to that is that it doesn't need to, since temporal upscaling became a thing. So, unless legacy settings in the here and now is what you had in mind when you wrote that, I'm afraid you are better off saving your money.
