Radeon RX 6800 vs Arc A380: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Radeon RX 6800 vs Arc A380
The Radeon RX 6800 is dramatically faster, around 417% ahead of the Arc A380. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 6800 is comfortable at 1440p, while the Arc A380 is better matched to entry-level 1080p.
Price & Value
The Arc A380 currently lists from $155 EUR, $254 EUR less than the Radeon RX 6800 at $409 EUR. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the Radeon RX 6800 wins on performance-per-dollar by about 96%. The Radeon RX 6800 is trading below its $579 EUR MSRP — a genuine deal.
Power & Efficiency
On power, the Arc A380 is the gentler choice at 75W versus 250W. The Radeon RX 6800 is more efficient per watt because it's faster, but its higher 250W draw means more heat and a bigger PSU.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The Radeon RX 6800 carries 16GB versus 6GB on the Arc A380. The extra 10GB helps at 4K, with high-resolution texture packs, and for content-creation or local-AI workloads that exhaust smaller buffers.
Generation & Longevity
The Arc A380 is roughly 2 years newer than the Radeon RX 6800 (Alchemist vs RDNA 2), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the Arc A380 brings Intel XeSS upscaling and AV1 encoding, while the Radeon RX 6800 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: Arc A380 or Radeon RX 6800?
The Radeon RX 6800 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 A380 if you find it at a steep discount.
