Common questions.

Straight answers on the RX 6800 versus the Arc A750.

  • Is the RX 6800 better than the Arc A750?

    They are close enough to call a tie. At 1440p the RX 6800 scores 59 on our index against 58 for the Arc A750 — a gap of about 2%, which is inside the margin where you would not feel a difference while gaming. Buy whichever is cheaper or easier to find.

  • Does the RX 6800 or Arc A750 bottleneck a Ryzen 5 9600X?

    Paired with a Ryzen 5 9600X at 1440p, the RX 6800 build comes out 18% GPU-bound, and the Arc A750 build comes out 19% GPU-bound. Being GPU-bound is the healthy outcome — it means the graphics card is the part working hardest.

  • Is it worth upgrading from the Arc A750 to the RX 6800?

    No. A 2% index gap will not be visible in games, and the money is better spent on the other side of the build — usually the GPU.
