Arc A770 vs GeForce GTX 1080 Ti: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Arc A770 vs GeForce GTX 1080 Ti
The Arc A770 is dramatically faster, around 40% ahead of the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Arc A770 is comfortable at 1440p, while the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti is better matched to 1080p.
Power & Efficiency
The Arc A770 draws just 225W versus 250W for the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, 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 11GB, the Arc A770 has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti's 11GB can fall short.
Generation & Longevity
The Arc A770 is roughly 5 years newer than the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti (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 1080 Ti brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Arc A770 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 1080 Ti or Arc A770?
The Arc A770 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.
