Arc A770 vs GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: Arc A770 vs GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER

The Arc A770 is significantly faster, around 33% ahead of the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1080p.

Price & Value

Right now the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER starts at $266 CAD against $504 CAD for the Arc A770. Despite being slower, the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER offers the better performance-per-dollar (~42% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is trading below its $399 CAD MSRP — a genuine deal. The Arc A770 still sits about $175 CAD above its $329 CAD MSRP.

Power & Efficiency

The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER pulls less power (175W vs 225W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster Arc A770 draws more overall but extracts more performance from each watt — plan for a sturdier power supply if you pick it. Its more modern Alchemist architecture on a TSMC N6 process is part of why it does more with each watt.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

With 16GB against 8GB, the Arc A770 has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER's 8GB can fall short.

Generation & Longevity

The Arc A770 is roughly 3 years newer than the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER (Alchemist vs Turing), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the Arc A770 brings Intel XeSS upscaling and AV1 encoding, while the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER offers NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing. 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 A770 or GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER?

Choose the Arc A770 if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Arc A770 better than the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER?

The Arc A770 is significantly faster, roughly 33% ahead. The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is still worth it if value matters more than top-end frames.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the Arc A770 or the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER?

Neither is a dedicated 4K card; both are best at 1080p. For 4K you'd want a faster GPU, or lean on upscaling.

Is the Arc A770 worth the extra $238 CAD over the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER?

Only if you need the extra performance or features; on pure value the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER comes out ahead.

Does the Arc A770 have enough VRAM advantage to matter?

Its 16GB (vs 8GB) gives real headroom for 4K, heavy texture mods, and creative/AI work. At 1080p the gap matters less.
