GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB vs Arc A380: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB vs Arc A380
The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB is dramatically faster, around 333% ahead of the Arc A380. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB is comfortable at 1440p, while the Arc A380 is better matched to entry-level 1080p.
Price & Value
The Arc A380 currently lists from $210 SGD, $1,189 SGD less than the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB at $1,398 SGD. Despite being slower, the Arc A380 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~54% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB still sits about $999 SGD above its $399 SGD MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
On power, the Arc A380 is the gentler choice at 75W versus 160W. The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB is more efficient per watt because it's faster, but its higher 160W draw means more heat and a bigger PSU. Its more modern Ada Lovelace architecture on a TSMC N4 process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB carries 8GB versus 6GB on the Arc A380. The extra 2GB 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 A380 brings Intel XeSS upscaling and AV1 encoding, while the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB 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 A380 or GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB?
Choose the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the Arc A380 stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.
