GeForce GTX 1060 vs Radeon R7 370: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: GeForce GTX 1060 vs Radeon R7 370

The GeForce GTX 1060 is dramatically faster, around 600% ahead of the Radeon R7 370. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.

Price & Value

Right now the GeForce GTX 1060 starts at $34 EUR against $35 EUR for the Radeon R7 370. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce GTX 1060 wins on performance-per-dollar by about 613%. The GeForce GTX 1060 is trading below its $299 EUR MSRP — a genuine deal. The Radeon R7 370 is trading below its $149 EUR MSRP — a genuine deal.

Power & Efficiency

The Radeon R7 370 pulls less power (110W vs 120W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster GeForce GTX 1060 draws more overall but extracts more performance from each watt — plan for a sturdier power supply if you pick it. Its more modern Pascal architecture on a TSMC 16nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

With 6GB against 2GB, the GeForce GTX 1060 has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the Radeon R7 370's 2GB can fall short.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1060 brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon R7 370 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 1060 or Radeon R7 370?

The GeForce GTX 1060 is the all-round winner here — it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the Radeon R7 370 if you find it at a steep discount.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the GeForce GTX 1060 better than the Radeon R7 370?

The GeForce GTX 1060 is dramatically faster, roughly 600% ahead. If your budget allows, it's the stronger pick.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the GeForce GTX 1060 or the Radeon R7 370?

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 Radeon R7 370 worth the extra $1 EUR over the GeForce GTX 1060?

Only if you need the extra performance or features; on pure value the GeForce GTX 1060 comes out ahead.

Does the GeForce GTX 1060 have enough VRAM advantage to matter?

Its 6GB (vs 2GB) gives real headroom for 4K, heavy texture mods, and creative/AI work. At 1080p the gap matters less.
