Quick Answers

So, is Arc A770 better than Radeon PRO W6600X?

Yes, but this is not really about a huge raw performance gap. The broader synthetic picture is also very close at 13,332 vs 13,113 in G3D Mark. The bigger reason to prefer Arc A770 is the overall package: you are getting a newer generation, no meaningful modern upscaling stack.

Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?

Arc A770 is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2022 generation instead of 2021, more VRAM at 16 GB instead of 8 GB, the stronger feature stack with no meaningful modern upscaling stack instead of FSR upscaling, and a 6nm process instead of 7nm. 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 A770 can still make sense if you find it at the right price, especially around $349 MSRP. Arc A770 is still the smarter buy for most people, though, because the raw performance is close while the overall package is cleaner. Arc A770 is about $350 cheaper on MSRP at $349 MSRP versus $699 MSRP, and you are getting 1.7% higher G3D Mark. Moving to $349 MSRP gets you newer hardware, and no meaningful modern upscaling stack.

Is Radeon PRO W6600X still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

Yes. Radeon PRO W6600X is still a strong gaming card in 2026: it is very strong for 1080p, good for 1440p, and more limited at 4K. Price is really the swing factor here. If you find it at or below $699 MSRP, it remains a very sensible buy. Arc A770 is still the safer recommendation for most fresh builds because it offers a cleaner overall package with newer hardware and no meaningful modern upscaling stack.
