This comparison brings together gaming FPS, raw graphics performance, VRAM, feature set, power efficiency, pricing context, and long-term value so you can see which GPU actually makes more sense.

Arc A770M

2022

Why buy it

  • 75.7% more average FPS across 49 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • 300% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (16 GB vs 4 GB).
  • More future proof: Generation 12.7 (2022−2023) on 6nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 23.3 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $500 MSRP).
  • 20% higher power demand at 120W vs 100W.

Quadro P5200

2018

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 23.3 vs 0 G3D/$ ($500 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • Draws 100W instead of 120W, a 20W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than Arc A770M across 49 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Less VRAM, with 4 GB vs 16 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • Limited future-proofing: older hardware, 4 GB of VRAM, and weaker feature support mean it will age faster in upcoming AAA games.

Quick Answers

So, is Arc A770M better than Quadro P5200?
Yes. Arc A770M is clearly the better overall GPU here. Arc A770M averages 75.7% more FPS across 49 tracked games in our benchmark data. You are also looking at 11,853 vs 11,650 in G3D Mark. On top of that, Arc A770M is a 2022 card with no meaningful modern upscaling stack, while Quadro P5200 is a 2018 model from an older generation with no meaningful modern upscaling stack. So this is not really a tight same-tier comparison. It is more a modern card against an older, weaker alternative.
Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?
Arc A770M is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2022 generation instead of 2018, more VRAM at 16 GB instead of 4 GB, 100.0% more ray-tracing hardware, and a 6nm process instead of 16nm. That extra memory headroom makes it the safer pick for newer games, heavier textures, and higher settings over time.
Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?
Arc A770M is priced in an unclear MSRP range at an unclear MSRP versus $500 MSRP, and you are getting 75.7% more estimated average FPS across 49 tracked games in our benchmark data and 1.7% higher G3D Mark. Quadro P5200 still holds the G3D-per-dollar lead, so the performance win comes with a real value premium. If you are comfortable paying the premium for the stronger gaming result, Arc A770M is the one to buy. If staying closer to budget matters more, Quadro P5200 still makes more sense on price alone, but the performance trade-off is much harder to justify by current standards.
Is Quadro P5200 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?
Yes. Quadro P5200 is still a strong gaming GPU in 2026: it is still comfortable for 1080p and decent for 1440p, though 4K is more situational. This mostly comes down to price. If you want to stay closer to $500 MSRP, it remains a strong choice; if you are comfortable paying more, Arc A770M earns that extra money with a clearly stronger gaming result and a more complete overall package.
