Arc A770 vs GeForce RTX 2070 Super Laptop: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Arc A770 vs GeForce RTX 2070 Super Laptop
The Arc A770 is significantly faster, around 25% ahead of the GeForce RTX 2070 Super Laptop. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1080p.
Price & Value
Right now the Arc A770 starts at $503 CAD against $2,645 CAD for the GeForce RTX 2070 Super Laptop. The Arc A770 still sits about $174 CAD above its $329 CAD MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
The GeForce RTX 2070 Super Laptop draws just 115W versus 225W for the Arc A770, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom.
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 2070 Super Laptop's 8GB can fall short.
Generation & Longevity
The Arc A770 is roughly 2 years newer than the GeForce RTX 2070 Super Laptop (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 2070 Super Laptop 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 2070 Super Laptop?
The Arc A770 is the faster card by about 25%. With live pricing limited for this pair, base your decision on the spec differences above — particularly VRAM and power draw — and check current stock before buying.
