![]() ![]() For now, Arc is one of the best options for encoding. Nvidia’s much more expensive RTX 40-series GPUs do so as well, but current-gen cards like the RTX 3060 lack those capabilities. How about for content creators? GPU streaming has been an important performance facet to consider lately, and the Arc provides impressive AV1 encoders. When Intel matures its drivers for Arc with stability improvements, the hardware can certainly prove very capable. When we consider new technologies thrown in such as DLSS and ray tracing, Nvidia also has a more mature setup. ![]() You will have a more consistent experience across games using DX11 and DX12. ![]() Unless you plan to play a very specific game where Arc excels, you’ll be better served by the mature drivers that accompany Nvidia’s GPUs for now, such as the RTX 3060. Our full Arc A770 review wades into the topsy-turvy performance results, but we’ve plucked out a few benchmarks to illustrate head-to-head performance between these two cards. If you haven’t upgraded your CPU and motherboard in the last few years, the GeForce RTX 3060 is the preferable upgrade. Keep in mind you’ll need a newer system that supports PCIe Resizable BAR or Smart Access Memory to take full advantage of the Intel Arc performance, which may limit some gamers with older hardware. On the flip side, if you want to play DX11 games-which most legacy games and non-triple-A games use-it’s better to skip Arc, for now. The Arc A770 delivers very competitive results in many newer DirectX 12 and Vulkan games. Other times, it is endlessly frustrating, with performance issues and instability causing major woes. This is what everyone has been waiting for – what can Intel do against the established competition? Sometimes, it’s fantastic, punching well above its weight. ![]() Thiago Trevisan Nvidia RTX 3060 vs Intel Arc A770 LE: Performance ![]()
