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

Arc Graphics 140T

2025

Why buy it

  • ✅Costs $149 less on MSRP ($350 MSRP vs $499 MSRP).
  • ✅Draws 35W instead of 220W, a 185W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • ❌Lower PassMark G3D performance (4,500 vs 22,172).
  • ❌Less VRAM, with Unknown vs 8 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • ❌No DLSS support; it relies on Upscaling support instead.
  • ❌2025 hardware with Unknown of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.
  • ❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 12.9 vs 44.4 G3D/$ ($350 MSRP vs $499 MSRP).

GeForce RTX 3070

2020

Why buy it

  • ✅+392.7% higher PassMark G3D performance.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
GeForce RTX 3070 is the faster gaming card right now based on the synthetic data we have. It leads by 392.7% in PassMark G3D (22,172 vs 4,500), which is the best performance signal available in this matchup.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 3070 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: 8 GB vs Unknown of VRAM, the newer upscaling stack, DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack, a 8nm process instead of Unknown node, and 46 vs 0 ray-tracing units. That gives it more room for heavier textures and higher settings over time.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
GeForce RTX 3070 makes the most sense to buy today. It is $149 more expensive on MSRP at $499 vs $350, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 245.6% (44.4 vs 12.9), so the value case lines up with the gaming result.
