Radeon RX 6700 XT vs Arc A380: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Radeon RX 6700 XT vs Arc A380
The Radeon RX 6700 XT is dramatically faster, around 300% ahead of the Arc A380. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 6700 XT is comfortable at 1080p, while the Arc A380 is better matched to entry-level 1080p.
Price & Value
The Arc A380 currently lists from $170 CAD, $591 CAD less than the Radeon RX 6700 XT at $761 CAD. Despite being slower, the Arc A380 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~12% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The Radeon RX 6700 XT still sits about $282 CAD above its $479 CAD MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
On power, the Arc A380 is the gentler choice at 75W versus 230W. The Radeon RX 6700 XT is more efficient per watt because it's faster, but its higher 230W draw means more heat and a bigger PSU.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The Radeon RX 6700 XT carries 12GB versus 6GB on the Arc A380. The extra 6GB helps at 4K, with high-resolution texture packs, and for content-creation or local-AI workloads that exhaust smaller buffers.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the Arc A380 brings Intel XeSS upscaling and AV1 encoding, while the Radeon RX 6700 XT offers AMD FSR upscaling and strong rasterization value. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.
Which should you buy: Arc A380 or Radeon RX 6700 XT?
Choose the Radeon RX 6700 XT if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the Arc A380 stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.
