Arc 130v performs less consistently and generally a bit slower than the 780M, and should probably be compared to a Steam Deck for potential performance. If you're willing to lower the resolution to 720p / 800p, you can probably play most games in low-med. Some older games will actually perform well, but you'll be held back by Intel's drivers and architecture which doesn't do great with DX9 / DX10 games, usually requiring a translation layer to make it playable with a performance penalty. When a game is supported well by the drivers, it can perform similarly to the 780m, but when support is poor... you might as well forget playing that game until Intel releases a fix, if ever. The good news is that Intel has indeed been improving game support over the past couple years, with the Arc GPUs being in a much better place than they were even last year.
