Arc A370M vs GeForce GTX 460 OEM: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

Arc A370M

2022

Why buy it

  • 32.2% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • 100% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (4 GB vs 2 GB).
  • Better long-term bet: Generation 12.7 (2022−2023) on 6nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.
  • Draws 35W instead of 150W, a 115W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Fewer clear downsides in this head-to-head, aside from the usual pricing and availability swings.

GeForce GTX 460 OEM

2010

Why buy it

  • Competitive enough if your priority is price, power, or specific feature preference.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than Arc A370M across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Less VRAM, with 2 GB vs 4 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • 2010 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • 328.6% higher power demand at 150W vs 35W.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
Arc A370M is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 32.2% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 2.3% in PassMark G3D (5,115 vs 5,000), so the answer here is pretty clean.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
Arc A370M is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: 4 GB vs 2 GB of VRAM, a 6nm process instead of 40nm, 8 vs 0 ray-tracing units, and a newer 2022 generation instead of 2010. That gives it more room for heavier textures and higher settings over time.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
Arc A370M makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup.
