About this deal

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.

The Intel Arc A770 graphics card has finally arrived, along with its little brother, the Intel Arc A750. After a rather disappointing Arc A380 review last month, Intel has a lot to prove with the bigger and far more potent A770. And it mostly succeeds! While there are certainly caveats — mostly about drivers, XeSS adoption, and long-term support — Intel clearly wants to prove it can compete with the likes of AMD and Nvidia, perhaps even laying claim to a seat at the table among the best graphics cards. The power connector is an 8-pin and 6-pin combo, so you'll have a pair of cables dangling from the card which may or may not affect the aesthetic of your case, but at least you won't need to worry about a 12VHPWR or 12-pin adapter like you do with Nvidia's RTX 4000-series and 3000-series cards.

On one level, Arc Alchemist would be the 13th iteration of Intel Graphics. At the same time, we'd also mark this down as generation one. There are enough major overhauls of the fundamental design, features, and functionality that a card like the A770 has very little in common with Intel's current 12th-Gen integrated Xe Graphics. There are several new additions to the GPU that provide a clear demarcation between the pre-Arc and the post-Arc world of Intel GPUs. Details about the extent of our regulation by the Financial Conduct Authority are available from us on request.

Arc's ray tracing capabilities have been a bit difficult to pin down up to now. The A380 did deliver better RT performance than the RX 6500 XT, but that's hardly praiseworthy. With four times the cores and hardware, we're expecting a lot more from the A770 and A750 — and Intel has even shown benchmarks where the A770 clearly beat the RTX 3060 with ray tracing enabled. 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 Experience supercharged gaming and cutting-edge creation experiences across the Intel Arc A-series family. From high-performance AAA gaming on Intel Arc 7 graphics to enhanced mainstream gaming on Intel Arc 3 graphics, there’s an Arc graphics card for your gaming adventure. Among all the cards tested, the Intel Arc A770 was at nearly the bottom of the list with the RX 6700 XT, so the picture for this card might have been very different had it launched three years ago and it had to compete with the RTX 3000-series and RX-6000 series exclusively. In the end, this card performs like a last-gen card, because it is.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. 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.

Of course, our full review on both the Arc A770 and A750 will give you all the details you need as to how fast these cards are, but in short, they'll be more than good enough for those who want solid 1080p gaming. The A770 is comparable to an RTX 3060 and an RX 6600 XT in terms of price and performance, as is the A750 too, which actually offered benchmark results that were rather similar to the A770, with a percentage margin of between three and 10 percent in favour of the A770.
