GeForce GTX 1660 Ti vs Arc A380: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: GeForce GTX 1660 Ti vs Arc A380

The GeForce GTX 1660 Ti is dramatically faster, around 44% ahead of the Arc A380. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.

Price & Value

The Arc A380 currently lists from $129 GBP, $209 GBP less than the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti at $339 GBP. Despite being slower, the Arc A380 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~81% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully.

Power & Efficiency

At 75W against 120W, the Arc A380 is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern Alchemist architecture on a TSMC N6 process is part of why it does more with each watt.

Generation & Longevity

The Arc A380 is roughly 3 years newer than the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti (Alchemist vs Turing), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Arc A380 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 1660 Ti or Arc A380?

Choose the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti better than the Arc A380?

The GeForce GTX 1660 Ti is dramatically faster, roughly 44% ahead. The Arc A380 is still worth it if value matters more than top-end frames.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti or the Arc A380?

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

Is the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti worth the extra $209 GBP over the Arc A380?

Only if you need the extra performance or features; on pure value the Arc A380 comes out ahead.
