What does this comparison mean?

Moving from GTX 980 Ti 6GB to Arc A770 16GB increases the recorded result from 102 to 184 FPS and graphics memory from 6GB to 16GB. The uplift is 80.4% in this workload with 10GB more capacity; the benchmark cannot tell us how much of the difference comes from memory rather than the rest of the GPU.

GTX 980 Ti 6GB has 6GB and Arc A770 16GB has 16GB of graphics memory. Memory capacity, board dimensions, power connectors and the price of a particular used card are separate from this benchmark. Compare the exact item before deciding whether to upgrade.

The two GPUs in context

GTX 980 Ti 6GB

The GTX 980 Ti arrived in June 2015 with Maxwell architecture and 6GB of GDDR5. It is distinct from the 4GB GTX 980 and from the later Pascal GTX 1080 Ti.

Arc A770 16GB

This Arc A770 uses the 16GB configuration. Intel documented October 2022 availability for the 16GB Limited Edition, separately from partner 8GB cards.

How the figures are compared

Both FPS figures come from the owner-supplied GPUsed benchmark dataset. GPUsed reports a continuous FurMark run at 1080p for its physical-card checks. The percentage compares the higher model average with the lower one using the original FPS values. Our rating uses a compressed scale, with the fastest GPU at 100; it is separate from the percentage difference. A benchmark result does not predict gaming FPS.

GPUsed reports its physical-card checks typically last 30 to 60 minutes while temperature and stability are checked. The owner supplied the model-level FPS workbook on 2 October 2026; this benchmark dataset was last reconciled 3 October 2026. Historical cards tested are separate from the number of FPS runs behind a model average. Full benchmark method.
