Radeon RX 7900 XTX vs Arc A380: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Radeon RX 7900 XTX vs Arc A380
The Radeon RX 7900 XTX is dramatically faster, around 833% ahead of the Arc A380. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 7900 XTX is comfortable at 4K with upscaling and native 1440p, while the Arc A380 is better matched to entry-level 1080p.
Price & Value
Right now the Arc A380 starts at $861 AED against $4,139 AED for the Radeon RX 7900 XTX. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX wins on performance-per-dollar by about 94%. The Arc A380 still sits about $722 AED above its $139 AED MSRP. The Radeon RX 7900 XTX still sits about $3,140 AED above its $999 AED MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
The Arc A380 pulls less power (75W vs 355W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster Radeon RX 7900 XTX draws more overall but extracts more performance from each watt — plan for a sturdier power supply if you pick it.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
With 24GB against 6GB, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the Arc A380's 6GB can fall short.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the Arc A380 brings Intel XeSS upscaling and AV1 encoding, while the Radeon RX 7900 XTX 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 7900 XTX?
The Radeon RX 7900 XTX 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.
