Compatibility analysis, performance by resolution and total build price.
El Core Ultra 5 245K Arrow Lake asegura que la Arc B770 nunca esté limitada por CPU. Excelente combinación para 1440p con capacidad de actualización futura.
What gaming experience can you expect?
This combination's strength is 1440p. With ~66 fps at Ultra you'll enjoy demanding AAA titles — Cyberpunk 2077, Black Myth: Wukong, Alan Wake 2 — with high visual quality and no compromises. At 1080p you have even more headroom (~88 fps), enough to take advantage of a 75–144 Hz monitor. The Core Ultra 5 245K is no bottleneck: with only a 0% bottleneck, the GPU runs at full speed in all scenarios.

When does it make sense to upgrade this build?
GPU — Arc B770
The Arc B770 performs well today, but in 1–2 years the most demanding games will pressure its 16 GB of VRAM. A jump to the mid-high range will be interesting.
CPU — Core Ultra 5 245K
The Core Ultra 5 245K is not the bottleneck in this build. When you upgrade the GPU, this processor will still be valid.
