Radeon RX 6800 vs Arc A770: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Radeon RX 6800 vs Arc A770
The Radeon RX 6800 is dramatically faster, around 55% ahead of the Arc A770. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 6800 is comfortable at 1440p, while the Arc A770 is better matched to 1080p.
Price & Value
Right now the Arc A770 starts at $50,300 JPY against $102,170 JPY for the Radeon RX 6800. Despite being slower, the Arc A770 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~31% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The Arc A770 still sits about $49,971 JPY above its $329 JPY MSRP. The Radeon RX 6800 still sits about $101,591 JPY above its $579 JPY MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
The Arc A770 pulls less power (225W vs 250W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster Radeon RX 6800 draws more overall but extracts more performance from each watt — plan for a sturdier power supply if you pick it.
Generation & Longevity
The Arc A770 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 A770 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 A770 or Radeon RX 6800?
Choose the Radeon RX 6800 if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the Arc A770 stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.
