Why buy each?

NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti

16GB variant advantage

The 16GB model avoids the 8GB limitation that plagued the base model — still relevant for 1440p gaming.

165W TDP

Very low power draw — works with virtually any modern PSU.

RTX 5060 Ti is better value new

At $429 with GDDR7 and DLSS 4, the RTX 5060 Ti is the clear choice for new buyers.

Intel Arc A770

16GB GDDR6 at $349

16GB VRAM at the $349 price point — more than the B580 (12GB) and any NVIDIA card at this tier.

Continued driver support

Intel released driver 32.0.101.8626 in March 2026, with ongoing optimisations for DX12 and Vulkan titles.

XeSS upscaling

Intel's AI upscaler works across all GPU brands but is optimized for Arc hardware.
