GeForce RTX 3080 Ti vs Arc A310: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 3080 Ti vs Arc A310
The GeForce RTX 3080 Ti is dramatically faster, around 875% ahead of the Arc A310. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti is comfortable at 1440p, while the Arc A310 is better matched to entry-level 1080p.
Price & Value
The Arc A310 currently lists from $138 EUR, $758 EUR less than the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti at $896 EUR. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti wins on performance-per-dollar by about 50%. The GeForce RTX 3080 Ti is trading below its $1,199 EUR MSRP — a genuine deal.
Power & Efficiency
At 30W against 350W, the Arc A310 is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern Alchemist architecture on a TSMC N6 process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The GeForce RTX 3080 Ti carries 12GB versus 4GB on the Arc A310. The extra 8GB 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 A310 brings Intel XeSS upscaling and AV1 encoding, while the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti 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 A310 or GeForce RTX 3080 Ti?
The GeForce RTX 3080 Ti is the all-round winner here — it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the Arc A310 if you find it at a steep discount.
