❌Arc A770 is the safer long-term pick here because the hardware is newer and the feature stack is stronger.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?

Arc A770 is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 23.7% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. PassMark G3D leans toward GeForce RTX 2060 instead at 14,114 vs 13,332, so for this question the real-game FPS result matters more than the synthetic split.

Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?

Arc A770 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: 16 GB vs 6 GB of VRAM, a 6nm process instead of 12nm, 32 vs 30 ray-tracing units, and a newer 2022 generation instead of 2019. That gives it more room for heavier textures and higher settings over time.

Which GPU is the better buy today?

GeForce RTX 2060 makes the most sense to buy today. It is priced the same on MSRP at $349 vs $349, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 5.9% (40.4 vs 38.2), which is enough to swing the recommendation its way. If you are mainly targeting 1080p and lighter 1440p, GeForce RTX 2060 is the easier value choice. If you care more about 1080p and lighter 1440p headroom, Arc A770 has the stronger long-term case.
