Intel Arc A770 Graphics

Product Information

You can buy the Arc A770 and Arc A750 from a range of major European retailers, which we've summarised in a handy table below. It seems especially strange that there's only one UK retailer earmarked in Ebuyer, but if there happens to be more, we'll be sure to add them here. Retailer So who's right? We'll have to wait and see what kind of wonders these GPU industry titans can work with silicon in the years to come. Intel certainly appears to have capitalized on a weak point in Nvidia's market strategy by queuing up a slate of (comparatively) cheap desktop GPUs just as GeForce 30-series card prices are starting to plummet and their successors are starting to seem wildly overpriced. The card has the typical one-HDMI, three-DisplayPort output layout of most modern twin-slot-width cards. Overall, if you discount the memory, the differences between the Arc A750 and the A770 are minute. That hardware parallelism results in the two cards placing very close together, in terms of performance, in most situations, as you will soon see.

These cards are especially good for content creators, with AV1 encoding providing a massive quality boost versus older H.264 and H.265 at the same bitrate, or alternatively a much lower bitrate while maintaining the same quality. The specs of the new Intel Arc series GPUs aren't half bad for the price, and bring with them some intriguing features, too. You can see this for yourself in our table below. The only real disadvantage of these cards is their DX9 and DX11 performance, graphics APIs that have become much less popular over the last five years but make up a large proportion of older games. Here, the Intel GPUs are hamstrung by a relatively immature driver and performance suffers as a result. Similarly, you shouldn't get the Arc GPUs if your system doesn't support Resizeable BAR, a technology that allows more direct access to GPU memory - without it enabled, performance tanks. Thankfully, most motherboards made in the last three plus years do support the feature. What are the prices of the Arc A770 and A750?Xe HPG microarchitecture is engineered from the ground-up to deliver high performance, efficiency, and scalability for gamers and creators. Intel Xe Super Sampling technology (XeSS) takes your gaming experience to the next level with AI-enhanced upscaling enabling more performance with high image fidelity. XeSS is optimized for Intel® Arc™ graphics products with the ability to take advantage of XMX AI hardware acceleration. Have a AMD 6000 series and this, A770 for the comparative price of what is can do / process according to a comparsion with with one of steams major gfx test apps. The AMD top range 6950 XT in a 4k test got about 9000 and this got 6500 roughly, So as you can see for price as to what you get is great and a lot of games will run on this absolutely fine. I really don't know why the gaming desktop community ain't catching on. Yes driver may need time, yes i don't know what its like for mining. As for sound the A770 is nearly silent, i here the CPU fan over the card fan for air cooling. The only reason i bought it, is because i once ran a game off of the integrated GFX of an INTEL CPU by accident and noticed "smeg" all difference, so i wanted to see what their offering could do. I am not disappointed in this card all all and just hope it gets the support from the community and company it should have. If you think of this situation using Nvidia’s typical GPU nomenclature, the Arc A750 is akin to a non-"Ti" card—where Nvidia's "Ti" moniker indicates some smaller upgrade or upgrades made to existing products—with the Arc A770 being the Ti variant. Flipping through the individual game results, things become a bit more chaotic. Against the 3060, there's only one game in our test suite where the Arc A770 doesn't claim the lead: Horizon Zero Dawn. Interestingly, that's a DX12 game, but Intel apparently hasn't fully optimized for it yet. Elsewhere, the A770 leads by anywhere from 4% (Flight Simulator) to as much as 35% (Red Dead Redemption 2). Finally, the A770 and 6650 XT split the games 50-50, with Arc trailing by as much as 19% (Horizon Zero Dawn again) and leading by as much as 28% (Red Dead Redemption 2 again). It’s also important to note that Intel’s Arc GPUs will be arriving late. The company originally planned on formally launching them in the US in Q3, following an earlier delay. However, the Oct. 12 launch date shows the Arc A770 will actually land in Q4.

The A750 and A770 are built on the same GPU die, as well, It measures 406mm2 and is produced on TSMC’s N6 6nm manufacturing process. The difference: The Arc A750’s GPU is partially disabled and doesn’t have quite as much raw power as the one in the Arc A770. But it’s not far off. Where the Arc A770 has 512 Vector Engines, 256 TMUs, and 128 ROPs, the A750 has 448 Vector Engines, 224 TMUs, and 112 ROPs. Intel’s Arc A750 looks, in person and on paper, like it is so close to being something great, and ready to soar. But, tragically, it pulls an Icarus once we fire up our tests. The card’s premium build quality, solid specs, and generally competitive MSRP might make for a winning combination. But this can only happen with drivers capable of supporting the card and extracting better and more consistent performance from the hardware. According to Gelsinger, Intel heard complaints from gamers about the high prices. “You should be frustrated because you are losing out as a gaming community. And today, we’re fixing that."As you might expect, given what we've already seen, 1080p medium actually decreases the Arc A770's relative performance. Arc performance improves by 56% compared to 1080p ultra, but the RTX 3060 is 68% faster and the RX 6650 XT is 73% faster. Any of these cards easily handle 1080p medium, but if you have a 144Hz monitor, you might prefer one of the non-Arc cards — at least for the time being. Idle power consumption is higher than it should be, as the GPU never quite reaches a fully idle state and its usage remains north of 10% even when sitting at the desktop. This, yet again, is a sign of driver issues. Power consumption in FurMark, however, is on the upper end of things and above most of the competition. Typically we see higher power consumption when running Guardians of the Galaxy, but in this case we only saw it top out close to the same numbers we saw from FurMark. Likely, this is due to the card not performing correctly while running the game, rather than the card actually having lower power consumption at full load. So, without further ado, here's all the important things you need to know about the Arc A770 and A750 GPUs, including where to buy them, their prices and a whole lot more.
