I've got a spreadsheet that tracks prices and performance. This is the best I've seen if I can't get in on the A750 for $170 deal.

I also own an ARC GPU and use it in my work from home PC. Totally bipolar card. In certain workloads, it absolutely blows away everything in its class - especially video encode/decode. In other workloads - specific games, the RX460 it replaced outperformed it. That said, they are good about updating drivers, continually making the card better over time.
But I mention the RX6600 because it's the best price/performance/watt combo. The RX6600 is rated at 132W, and according to my watt meter, it has never hit that even under full load. Meanwhile, the ARC A750 is rated at 225W. My gaming PC is a refurb with a proprietary PSU, and I don't want to have to reverse engineer the wiring harness, cut the existing connector, solder wires, and pray I didn't brick everything. So, I'm stuck with the PSU I have. PSUs (and thus wattage) are often overlooked. And you can get a good PSU for $50 if your PC supports it. But it's something often overlooked that can bite novices or push the price out of one's budget.

Proprietary PSU pinouts tend to be found on lower cost options. Force people to buy a new PC when it's time to upgrade versus upgrading the one they have. Smart for business, annoying for customers.
