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

Performance: Arc A770 vs GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER

The Arc A770 is noticeably faster, around 12% ahead of the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Arc A770 is comfortable at 1440p, while the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is better matched to 1080p.

Price & Value

Right now the Arc A770 starts at $289 GBP against $549 GBP for the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the Arc A770 wins on performance-per-dollar by about 113%. The Arc A770 is trading below its $329 GBP MSRP β€” a genuine deal. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is trading below its $699 GBP MSRP β€” 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 β€” 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?

The Arc A770 is the all-round winner here β€” it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER if you find it at a steep discount.
