Radeon R9 380 vs GeForce GT 730: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: Radeon R9 380 vs GeForce GT 730

The Radeon R9 380 is dramatically faster, around 500% ahead of the GeForce GT 730. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.

Power & Efficiency

The GeForce GT 730 draws just 25W versus 190W for the Radeon R9 380, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

With 2GB against 1GB, the Radeon R9 380 has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce GT 730's 1GB can fall short.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the Radeon R9 380 brings AMD FSR upscaling and strong rasterization value, while the GeForce GT 730 offers NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.

Which should you buy: Radeon R9 380 or GeForce GT 730?

the Radeon R9 380 is the faster card by about 500%. With live pricing limited for this pair, base your decision on the spec differences above — particularly VRAM and power draw — and check current stock before buying.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Radeon R9 380 better than the GeForce GT 730?

The Radeon R9 380 is dramatically faster, roughly 500% ahead. If your budget allows, it's the stronger pick.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the Radeon R9 380 or the GeForce GT 730?

Neither is a dedicated 4K card; both are best at entry-level 1080p. For 4K you'd want a faster GPU, or lean on upscaling.

Does the Radeon R9 380 have enough VRAM advantage to matter?

Its 2GB (vs 1GB) gives real headroom for 4K, heavy texture mods, and creative/AI work. At 1080p the gap matters less.
