GeForce GTX 1050 Ti vs Radeon R7 360: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: GeForce GTX 1050 Ti vs Radeon R7 360

The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is dramatically faster, around 300% ahead of the Radeon R7 360. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.

Price & Value

Right now the Radeon R7 360 starts at $26 EUR against $148 EUR for the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti. Despite being slower, the Radeon R7 360 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~45% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The Radeon R7 360 is trading below its $109 EUR MSRP — a genuine deal.

Power & Efficiency

The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti draws just 75W versus 100W for the Radeon R7 360, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom. Its more modern Pascal architecture on a Samsung 14nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

With 4GB against 2GB, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the Radeon R7 360's 2GB can fall short.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon R7 360 offers AMD FSR upscaling and strong rasterization value. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.

Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1050 Ti or Radeon R7 360?

Choose the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the Radeon R7 360 stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti better than the Radeon R7 360?

The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is dramatically faster, roughly 300% ahead. The Radeon R7 360 is still worth it if value matters more than top-end frames.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti or the Radeon R7 360?

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.

Is the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti worth the extra $122 EUR over the Radeon R7 360?

Only if you need the extra performance or features; on pure value the Radeon R7 360 comes out ahead.

Does the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti have enough VRAM advantage to matter?

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