Intel Arc A770 16GB
Specifications, where the Arc A770 16GB sits for gaming, the processor worth pairing with it, and the frame rate the pair returns at every resolution.
Ryzen 5 5600
The Arc A770 16GB and the Ryzen 5 5600 return about 45 fps on High at 1440p with neither part wasting the other. A processor slower than the Ryzen 5 5600 leaves the Arc A770 16GB idling, and a faster one adds no frames to a Arc A770 16GB at this resolution.

| Gaming performance index | 33.0 (RTX 4090 = 100) |
What these numbers mean for the Arc A770 16GB
On our index the Arc A770 16GB scores 33.0, which places it 45th of the 89 graphics cards we track and puts it faster than roughly 50% of them.
The Arc A770 16GB and the GeForce RTX 4060 land on exactly the same index score of 33.0, so on raw throughput the two are interchangeable and the choice between them comes down to memory, power draw and price on the day.
16 GB of memory means video memory will never be the Arc A770 16GB limiting factor at any resolution it is fast enough to run, including 4K with high texture settings and ray tracing switched on.
At 225 W the Arc A770 16GB sits in the mainstream power bracket, so a competent supply of around 550 W total handles the whole machine and cooling is a matter of normal case airflow rather than special planning.
Released in 2022, the Arc A770 16GB is a card most people now meet on the used market or in an existing build rather than on a shelf, and after 4 years the only price worth judging a Arc A770 16GB on is what it costs today.
Arc A770 16GB frame rate at each resolution
The Arc A770 16GB paired with the Ryzen 5 5600 on the High preset with 16 GB of system memory. The card is the limit throughout, so the Arc A770 16GB falls the full 57% from 61 fps to 26 fps as the pixel count rises.
| Resolution | Estimated fps | Limited by |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p (1920 x 1080) | 61 fps | Balanced |
| 1440p (2560 x 1440) | 45 fps | GPU |
| 4K (3840 x 2160) | 26 fps | GPU |
How the Arc A770 16GB compares
6 cards sit within 30% of the Arc A770 16GB on our gaming index, running from the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti at +27% to the Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB at +21%, a window narrow enough that price, memory and power decide it rather than raw speed.
What to pair with the Arc A770 16GB, and when to upgrade
Best CPU for the Arc A770 16GB
When the Arc A770 16GB becomes the limit, the GeForce RTX 4070 is the next step worth paying for: 55.0 on our index against 33.0, a jump of 67%, which is roughly where an upgrade stops being something you have to look at a counter to notice. See its specs.
