Intel's Arc A770 offers 16GB of VRAM for only $329. But is it worth it? Is it worth buying an Intel Arc GPU now that they have had a ton of driver updates? While Intel can offer compelling performance per dollar compared to Nvidia, the real problem is that it needs to also offer better value than AMD. AMD's RX 6700 XT offers 12GB of VRAM and a ton of performance for about the same price as the Arc A770. So is it time to switch to Intel? Or is AMD still the better value in 2023?
