Intel Arc A380E x2 vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data contains no direct head-to-head benchmark comparisons between the Intel Arc A380E x2 and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti. The database lists no shared test scores, no win counts for either product, and no delta percentages between them. What the data does show is that the RTX 5070 Ti holds a percentile rank of 86 against all GPUs, while the Arc A380E x2 sits at percentile 50. That gap places the two cards in entirely different performance tiers, with the NVIDIA part occupying a position far above the midpoint of the database.

The RTX 5070 Ti has an average benchmark score of 49,957 across all recorded tests. The Arc A380E x2 has an average benchmark score of zero, indicating that no benchmark results are recorded for it in the database. This absence of data means any quantitative comparison of raw performance between the two cards cannot be established from the recorded measurements.

For context on where the RTX 5070 Ti sits among its nearest rivals, the database provides four comparison points. The AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 scores 50,001, which is 0.1 percent lower than the RTX 5070 Ti. The Intel Arc A550M scores 49,737, which is 0.4 percent higher than the RTX 5070 Ti. The AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT scores 50,951, which is 2 percent lower. The AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT scores 48,477, which is 3.1 percent higher. These figures show the RTX 5070 Ti clustered tightly with high-end cards from the previous generation, trading places by single-digit percentage margins.

The RTX 5070 Ti delivers specific results in individual workloads. In 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 it scores 6,604. In Geekbench OpenCL it scores 212,363. In Geekbench Vulkan it scores 225,122. Passmark results include DirectX 9 at 351, DirectX 11 at 300, DirectX 10 at 192, DirectX 12 at 127, G2D at 1,332, G3D at 32,974, and GPU compute at 20,203. These numbers confirm a part that excels in modern graphics APIs and compute-heavy tasks but shows comparatively weaker figures in legacy DirectX 10 and DirectX 12 Passmark tests.

No equivalent scores exist for the Arc A380E x2, so the analysis must rely on architectural specifications and the percentile placement to characterize the performance gap. The RTX 5070 Ti is clearly the stronger card by every measurable metric available in the database.

Where Each One Wins

The RTX 5070 Ti wins on every performance-related specification recorded in the database. It delivers more shading units, TMUs, ROPs, ray tracing cores, and tensor cores. It has a higher boost clock, larger memory capacity, wider memory bus, and nearly five times the memory bandwidth. Its FP32 throughput of 43.94 TFLOPS dwarfs the 4.096 TFLOPS of the Arc A380E x2. Its pixel rate of 235.4 GPixel/s and texture rate of 686.6 GTexel/s are far above the Arc figures of 64.00 GPixel/s and 128.0 GTexel/s. The RTX 5070 Ti also holds a percentile rank of 86, compared to the Arc's percentile rank of 50.

The Arc A380E x2 wins in power efficiency and physical footprint. It has a TDP of 130 W versus 300 W for the RTX 5070 Ti, and its suggested PSU of 300 W is less than half the 700 W required for the NVIDIA card. The Arc is single-slot, while the RTX 5070 Ti is dual-slot. The Arc is shorter at 265 mm versus 304 mm, narrower at 20 mm versus 48 mm, and lower in height at 127 mm versus 137 mm. The Arc also uses a standard 6-pin power connector, while the RTX 5070 Ti requires a 16-pin connector. For a compact system with limited power delivery and space, the Arc A380E x2 is the only one of the two that fits those constraints.

The Arc provides 8x mini-DisplayPort 2.0 outputs, which is a higher display output count than the RTX 5070 Ti's 1x HDMI 2.1b and 3x DisplayPort 2.1b. For multi-display configurations that rely exclusively on mini-DisplayPort, the Arc offers more direct connectivity options. The RTX 5070 Ti counters with a mix of HDMI and DisplayPort, which may suit setups that require both interface types.

The RTX 5070 Ti also holds the advantage in production status. It is listed as active, while the Arc A380E x2 is end-of-life. The RTX 5070 Ti's release date of 2025-02-19 is newer than the Arc's 2024-03-31. The database records benchmark scores for the RTX 5070 Ti across ten different tests, while the Arc has none, meaning the NVIDIA card has verified performance data while the Arc does not.

The Verdict

The data separates these two cards cleanly into different categories. The RTX 5070 Ti is a high-end GPU with a percentile rank of 86, an average benchmark score of 49,957, and a full set of recorded test results. The Arc A380E x2 is a low-power, compact card at percentile 50 with no recorded benchmark scores. Any workload that depends on raw compute, memory bandwidth, ray tracing, or modern API performance belongs to the RTX 5070 Ti. Its 43.94 TFLOPS of FP32, 896.0 GB/s of bandwidth, and 16 GB of GDDR7 memory put it in a different performance class entirely.

The Arc A380E x2 makes sense only for constrained environments. Its 130 W TDP, single-slot design, 265 mm length, and 300 W suggested PSU allow installation in systems where the RTX 5070 Ti would not fit or could not be powered. Its 8x mini-DisplayPort 2.0 outputs provide a high display count in a small package. Those are the only advantages the recorded data supports. For any performance-driven use case, the RTX 5070 Ti is the clear choice, and its active production status ensures continued availability. The Arc A380E x2 is end-of-life, which limits its long-term viability. The benchmark data, the specification sheet, and the percentile rankings all point in the same direction: the RTX 5070 Ti is the superior graphics processor, and the Arc A380E x2 serves only the narrow niche of compact, low-power multi-display systems.
