Intel Arc A770 16GB Benchmarks - Worth It?

Just bought an ARC A770 for $280 and installed it into a system that will mostly be used to teach myself Resolve and OBS. So far, so good. I suspect that driver support will keep getting better because Intel has the resources to maintain such a focus.

I swear if Intel keeps going I'll seriously consider them for my next gpu. Nvidia has become too expensive and amd aren't as value oriented as they once were.

A lot of content creators and production users like the 16GB of VRAM on a wide memory bus. The 770 does cater to a specific market that AMD and Nvidia have ignored. Intel's driver development is also helping with their iGPU drivers. Future looks positive for Intel keeping up on their ARC line.

I've got the A750, it hasn't let me down!

I have the exact same version of the A770 you have and I love it, sniped for 279$ USD new for my secondary system, intel has come a very very long way in terms of drivers and the instability seems to be fixed for the most part. In terms of performance the card is still all over the place, sometimes losing to a 3060, to sometimes mopping the floor with a 4060Ti. Either way I think this card will age like fine wine and over the next 4-5 months it’ll get more consistent

I just recently switched to a INTEL LIMITED EDITION A770 16GB after my 3080 died. even though the framerate's weren't crazy fast, it runs butter smooth, and Personally I like the way Intel renders the colors in COD.

Such an exotic 3rd contender card. I've seen a few at my microcenter here. Keep up the good work as always. Always love the die breakdowns.

as an enthusiest, i LOVE what this card represents. for a first gen product (yes they have done integrated for years but integrated was never ment for running games) this is a very good start, i have also heard from multiple sources that the bigger reason the performance is so low compared to cards with similar power draw is there was a slight flaw in the base architecture, leading to lower performance. (the a770 was originally supposed to be at or above a 3070 in terms of performance) i have the acer predator a770, mostly because i just think the blower and flow through hybrid fan tech is super cool, and it performes quite well (although i did go back to my 4080 just because its performance is way higher lol) i just hope the flagship battlemage card blows us away, im hearing roumers of a possible 4070ti or even 4080 competitor, and if it does indeed turn out that way, ill 100% get one. especially if it is around or even under 700 bucks.

I just bought the A770 Sparkle and waiting for delivery. Hoping the experience is good. 🤞🏻

I believe that many gamers buying the Arc cards do it so to support the new platform, and be there to se it evolve and grow, not max out performance, gaming heroes in a way!

have you unlocked the resizable bar function? I heard that if it is disabled, the card loses a lot of performance

It all depends on the price. In my country A750 is €250 and A770 is €399. Performance uplift is like 5% at most.

I got my A770 for around 250 here in Japan and that 16GB is worth every penny especially for the future games that needs more than 8GB. for competitive games you dont need that much since most of those are optimized for 8GB or lower specs, since AAA and AA single games will be aimed with PS5/XBSX ram in mind 16GB is definitely the way to go if you want to use more geometry and texture data for those sweet visuals. also for those who are starting to use Blender on making 3D stuff or just Davinci Resolve, it's quite fast for what it is. so if you can spot an under 300 bucks in the wild id say it's a steal.

Fully working with pico connect on VR , love this GPU now 😁

A770 is constantly on sale for 250-260 so it’s better for the price to performance than the 4060

Works perfectly with emulators at least the arc a750 from my experience

Your standards are a bit weird, what is a acceptable frame rate. Seems like anything under 200 fps at 1440p is not playable in your opinion

Apex Legends is also available in DX12. Borderlands 3 is a UE4 game, disable texture streaming and the stuttering will go away.

You are not using XeSS. You should be more knowledgable in the area of electronics my friend… XeSS literally a blessing to this already powerful GPU. Edit: You know about XeSS, but you didn’t show the differences with XeSS. These are only native settings.

intel gpu can spot game devs flaws in the code when it reveal any lower 1%lows when highs can go very high 300 fps....crysis is well made game in remaster version than original version due to devs don't make mistake in making maps from their tools of doing maps in one pass vs avg dev would patch the map by multiple pass from their texture editor than redo whole map from scracth that devs don't want to do again so that idea would result fps hit in certain spot on the map if user find it from gpu rendering ...devs are getting super lazy as this late ...either time constraints and low pay
