All good choices......and not because they are mostly identical to my setup.
The entire Arc line up has the same media engine and number of media engines. So getting an A770 will not make a difference over the A310. Where things change is tone mapping, which is VRAM intensive. The A380 is a good middle ground. The 6GB of VRAM can handle 5-6 tone mapped transcodes. For plain transcoding, my testing resulted in about 20 simultaneous transcodes.
