Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The database contains only a single recorded benchmark for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB: a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 run with a score of 2907. The Intel Arc B770 has no recorded benchmark scores in the database, which limits direct head-to-head comparison. The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB sits at the 18th percentile among all GPUs, while the Arc B770 is placed at the 50th percentile, indicating the Intel card occupies a higher overall standing in the database's distribution of recorded hardware.
The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB's closest recorded rival is the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4000 Blackwell SFF, which scores 2910, a delta of only 0.1% higher. The RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB is essentially identical at 2913, just 0.2% above the 16 GB variant. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4010 trails slightly at 2893, which is 0.5% lower. The NVIDIA Quadro P600 leads the group at 2923, 0.5% above the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB. These tight margins demonstrate that the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB is pinned to a narrow performance band among its nearest competitors.
Because the Arc B770 has no benchmark entries, the data cannot confirm any direct win for either card in rasterized or ray-traced workloads. The specification sheet for the Arc B770 shows higher theoretical throughput in several categories, including 512.0 GB/s of memory bandwidth versus 288.0 GB/s for the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB, and 19.66 TFLOPS FP32 versus 22.06 TFLOPS. The NVIDIA card actually delivers the higher FP32 figure, but the Intel card's FP16 output of 39.32 TFLOPS more than doubles its FP32 rate, while the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB runs FP16 at the same 22.06 TFLOPS as FP32.
Pixel throughput strongly favors the Arc B770. The Intel card records 307.2 GPixel/s against 121.7 GPixel/s for the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB. Texture rate also favors Intel at 614.4 GTexel/s versus 344.8 GTexel/s. These are raw compute figures from the database, not measured frame rates, so they indicate architectural capacity rather than actual game performance. The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB's measured 3DMark score of 2907 remains the only confirmed application-level result.

Where Each One Wins
The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB wins on measured application performance, since it is the only card of the pair with a recorded benchmark score. Its 2907 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 is the sole confirmed data point. The card also wins on raw FP32 compute at 22.06 TFLOPS, which exceeds the Arc B770's 19.66 TFLOPS. NVIDIA's card carries 136 tensor cores and 34 RT cores, and it runs FP16 at the same rate as FP32, which suits workloads that do not benefit from packed math acceleration.
The Arc B770 wins on memory bandwidth by a wide margin. Its 512.0 GB/s is nearly double the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB's 288.0 GB/s, and the 256 bit bus is twice as wide. The Intel card also dominates in pixel throughput at 307.2 GPixel/s versus 121.7 GPixel/s and texture throughput at 614.4 GTexel/s versus 344.8 GTexel/s. Its FP16 output of 39.32 TFLOPS is 78% higher than its own FP32 rate, which can benefit compute tasks that use FP16 math. The Arc B770 also offers more RT cores in its architecture configuration (32) and higher total shading units (4096 versus 4352 for NVIDIA, though NVIDIA has more shading units overall).
The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB is the smaller physical card at 240 mm length, 111 mm height, and 40 mm width, all recorded in the database. The Arc B770 has no recorded dimensions. The NVIDIA card is also end-of-life, meaning its production status is confirmed, while the Arc B770 has no production status listed.
Specification Differences
The Arc B770 uses the BMG-G31 chip from Intel's Xe2-HPG architecture in the Battlemage (Arc 7) generation. The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB uses the AD106 chip from NVIDIA's Ada Lovelace architecture in the GeForce 40 generation. Both are built on a 5 nm process at TSMC. The Intel die measures 368 mm², while the NVIDIA die is 188 mm². The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB has a confirmed transistor count of 22,900 million and a density of 121.8M per mm²; the Arc B770's transistor count is unknown.
Clock speeds differ: the Arc B770 runs at 2100 MHz base and 2400 MHz boost, with memory at 2000 MHz (16 Gbps effective). The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB runs at 2310 MHz base and 2535 MHz boost, with memory at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective). The NVIDIA card has higher clock speeds on both the GPU and the memory, but the Intel card's wider bus compensates in bandwidth.
The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB has 4352 shading units, 136 TMUs, and 48 ROPs. The Arc B770 has 4096 shading units, 256 TMUs, and 128 ROPs. NVIDIA has 34 RT cores and 136 tensor cores; Intel has 32 RT cores and no tensor core count listed. The Arc B770 has 32 RT cores, which is close to NVIDIA's 34.
Power requirements favor NVIDIA. The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB uses 165 W with a single 16-pin connector and a 450 W suggested PSU. The Arc B770 uses 225 W with a 1x 6-pin plus 1x 8-pin configuration and a 550 W suggested PSU. Both are dual-slot cards. The bus interface differs: the Arc B770 uses PCIe 4.0 x16, while the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB uses PCIe 4.0 x8.
Display outputs are not identical. The Arc B770 provides 1x HDMI 2.1a and 3x DisplayPort 2.1. The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB provides 1x HDMI 2.1 and 3x DisplayPort 1.4a. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4.
Release timing differs substantially. The Arc B770 has a release date of 2025-12-31, while the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB was released on 2023-05-17. The NVIDIA card's predecessor is GeForce 30 and its successor is GeForce 50. The Arc B770's predecessor is Alchemist, and no successor is listed. The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB has a launch MSRP of 499 USD, which the database records once here. The Arc B770 has no launch MSRP field value.
Architecture Differences
The Arc B770 is built on Intel's Xe2-HPG architecture, which is the second generation of Intel's discrete GPU designs. The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB uses NVIDIA's Ada Lovelace architecture, which is the third generation of RTX designs. Both architectures use a 5 nm process from TSMC, so the manufacturing node is identical. The Intel die is nearly twice the size at 368 mm² versus 188 mm², which reflects the wider 256 bit memory interface and the larger number of TMUs and ROPs.
The memory subsystem differs fundamentally. The Arc B770 pairs 16 GB GDDR6 with a 256 bit bus to reach 512.0 GB/s. The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB also has 16 GB GDDR6 but uses a 128 bit bus for 288.0 GB/s. The Intel card's memory bandwidth advantage is 224 GB/s, or roughly 78% higher. This difference can matter in memory-bound scenarios, although no benchmark data confirms real-world impact.
Compute architecture differs in FP16 handling. The Arc B770 executes FP16 at 39.32 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio relative to FP32, meaning it can process two FP16 operations per FP32 operation. The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB executes FP16 at 22.06 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio, meaning no throughput advantage for FP16. The Intel card also uses a larger number of TMUs (256 versus 136) and ROPs (128 versus 48), which contributes to its higher texture and pixel rates.
NVIDIA's Ada Lovelace implementation includes 136 tensor cores, which are specialized for AI workloads, and 34 RT cores. The Arc B770 lists 32 RT cores but does not list tensor cores in the database. The absence of a tensor core field means the database records no equivalent AI accelerator for the Intel card. The NVIDIA card's tensor cores are a distinguishing feature that the Intel specifications do not match on paper.
The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB's transistor density of 121.8M per mm² is derived from its 22,900 million transistors on a 188 mm² die. The Arc B770's transistor count is unknown, so no density comparison is possible from the recorded data. The Intel card's larger die with unknown transistor count leaves its architectural efficiency unquantified.
The Verdict
The recorded data strongly favors the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB for anyone who needs confirmed performance. It has a measured 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 2907, which places it within 0.5% of its nearest rivals in either direction. This is a proven quantity. The Arc B770 has no benchmark scores in the database, so its real-world performance is unverified. The 50th percentile ranking for the Arc B770 versus the 18th percentile for the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB suggests the Intel card occupies a higher position in the database's overall distribution, but that ranking is not backed by any recorded test result.
For users who prioritize raw memory bandwidth and throughput rates, the Arc B770 delivers 512.0 GB/s, 307.2 GPixel/s, and 614.4 GTexel/s, all of which exceed the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB's figures by large margins. The Intel card also offers FP16 compute at 39.32 TFLOPS, which is suited to workloads that can use packed math. However, these are paper specifications, not measured outcomes.
For users who prioritize power efficiency and physical footprint, the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB is the better choice. It draws 165 W versus 225 W, requires a 450 W PSU versus 550 W, and fits in a 240 mm length with a 111 mm height and 40 mm width. The NVIDIA card also has a confirmed production status of end-of-life, meaning it is a mature product with an established record. The Arc B770's production status is not listed.
The choice comes down to verified results versus unverified capacity. The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB is the only card with a confirmed benchmark score, and it carries NVIDIA's tensor cores for AI work. The Arc B770 offers a wider memory bus, higher pixel and texture rates, and a higher overall percentile ranking, but none of that is confirmed by application tests in the database. Users who need certainty should select the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB. Users who need maximum memory bandwidth and FP16 throughput, and who are willing to accept unverified performance, can consider the Arc B770.
