GeForce GTX 980 Ti vs Radeon R9 380: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce GTX 980 Ti vs Radeon R9 380
The GeForce GTX 980 Ti is dramatically faster, around 50% ahead of the Radeon R9 380. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.
Power & Efficiency
On power, the Radeon R9 380 is the gentler choice at 190W versus 250W. The GeForce GTX 980 Ti is more efficient per watt because it's faster, but its higher 250W draw means more heat and a bigger PSU.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The GeForce GTX 980 Ti carries 6GB versus 2GB on the Radeon R9 380. The extra 4GB helps at 4K, with high-resolution texture packs, and for content-creation or local-AI workloads that exhaust smaller buffers.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the Radeon R9 380 brings AMD FSR upscaling and strong rasterization value, while the GeForce GTX 980 Ti 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 GTX 980 Ti?
the GeForce GTX 980 Ti is the faster card by about 50%. 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.
