GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs Arc A770: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs Arc A770

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is marginally faster, around 5% ahead of the Arc A770. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1080p.

Price & Value

Right now the Arc A770 starts at $325 EUR against $538 EUR for the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. Despite being slower, the Arc A770 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~57% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is trading below its $699 EUR MSRP — a genuine deal.

Power & Efficiency

The Arc A770 draws just 225W versus 250W for the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER, 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 8GB, the Arc A770 has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER's 8GB can fall short.

Generation & Longevity

The Arc A770 is roughly 3 years newer than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER (Alchemist vs Turing), 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 GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 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 A770 or GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER?

Choose the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER better than the Arc A770?

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is marginally faster, roughly 5% ahead. The Arc A770 is still worth it if value matters more than top-end frames.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the Arc A770 or the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER?

Neither is a dedicated 4K card; both are best at 1080p. For 4K you'd want a faster GPU, or lean on upscaling.

Is the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER worth the extra $213 EUR over the Arc A770?

Only if you need the extra performance or features; on pure value the Arc A770 comes out ahead.

Does the Arc A770 have enough VRAM advantage to matter?

Its 16GB (vs 8GB) gives real headroom for 4K, heavy texture mods, and creative/AI work. At 1080p the gap matters less.
