Arc A770

2022

Why buy it

✅100% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (16 GB vs 8 GB).

Trade-offs

❌Lower average FPS than GeForce RTX 4060 across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
❌No equivalent frame-generation stack like DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
❌GeForce RTX 4060 is the safer long-term pick here because the hardware is newer and the feature stack is stronger.
❌
16.7% HIGHER MSRP
$349 MSRPvs$299 MSRP
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 38.2 vs 65.4 G3D/$ ($349 MSRP vs $299 MSRP).

GeForce RTX 4060

2023

Why buy it

✅0.5% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
✅Costs $50 less on MSRP ($299 MSRP vs $349 MSRP).
✅Delivers 71.1% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 65.4 vs 38.2 G3D/$ ($299 MSRP vs $349 MSRP).
✅Access to a newer frame-generation stack with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
✅Better long-term bet: Ada Lovelace (2022−2024) on 5nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

❌Less VRAM, with 8 GB vs 16 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?

GeForce RTX 4060 is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 0.5% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 46.6% in PassMark G3D (19,548 vs 13,332), so the answer here is pretty clean.

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

GeForce RTX 4060 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: the newer feature stack, with DLSS 3.5 Super Resolution (2023) and DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023), while Arc A770 is limited to no meaningful modern upscaling stack and no comparable frame-generation support, a 5nm process instead of 6nm, and a newer 2023 generation instead of 2022. That makes it the less risky pick as game demands keep moving.

Which GPU is the better buy today?

GeForce RTX 4060 makes the most sense to buy today. It is $50 cheaper on MSRP at $299 vs $349, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 71.1% (65.4 vs 38.2), so the value case lines up with the gaming result.

Advanced Features (DLSS/FSR)

The clearest feature edge for the GeForce RTX 4060 is support for DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation. In games that support it, that can smooth out motion and lift perceived FPS. The Arc A770 does not have comparable native support in the same tier.The GeForce RTX 4060 gets NVIDIA DLSS, which still tends to look cleaner in motion. The Arc A770 leans on FSR, which is flexible and widely supported, but usually a bit rougher at the same settings.
