Intel Arc A770M vs Radeon RX 5700: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Intel Arc A770M vs Radeon RX 5700
The Intel Arc A770M is dramatically faster, around 40% ahead of the Radeon RX 5700. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1080p.
Price & Value
Right now the Radeon RX 5700 starts at $1,159 CAD against $4,205 CAD for the Intel Arc A770M. The Radeon RX 5700 still sits about $810 CAD above its $349 CAD MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
The Intel Arc A770M draws just 150W versus 180W for the Radeon RX 5700, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom. 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 Intel Arc A770M has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the Radeon RX 5700's 8GB can fall short.
Generation & Longevity
The Intel Arc A770M is roughly 3 years newer than the Radeon RX 5700 (Alchemist vs RDNA), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the Intel Arc A770M brings Intel XeSS upscaling and AV1 encoding, while the Radeon RX 5700 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: Intel Arc A770M or Radeon RX 5700?
The Intel Arc A770M is the faster card by about 40%. 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.
