Sid Meier’s Civilization VI on Arc A770 8GB

Well above recommendedEstimate · medium confidence, ±20%

Yes. The Arc A770 8GB is well above Sid Meier’s Civilization VI's recommended spec. We estimate ~183 fps at 1080p high (range 147–220, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~128 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Its 8 GB of video memory covers the 2 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

What limits performance

Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the Arc A770 8GB back.

With the recommended CPU (FX-8350): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 183.
