GeForce GTX 1070 vs Arc A380: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce GTX 1070 vs Arc A380
The GeForce GTX 1070 is dramatically faster, around 44% ahead of the Arc A380. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.
Power & Efficiency
The Arc A380 draws just 75W versus 150W for the GeForce GTX 1070, 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 8GB against 6GB, the GeForce GTX 1070 has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the Arc A380's 6GB can fall short.
Generation & Longevity
The Arc A380 is roughly 6 years newer than the GeForce GTX 1070 (Alchemist vs Pascal), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1070 brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Arc A380 offers Intel XeSS upscaling and AV1 encoding. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.
Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1070 or Arc A380?
The GeForce GTX 1070 is the faster card by about 44%. 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.
