GeForce GTX 960 vs GeForce GTX 760: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce GTX 960 vs GeForce GTX 760
The GeForce GTX 960 is dramatically faster, around 50% ahead of the GeForce GTX 760. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.
Price & Value
The GeForce GTX 760 currently lists from $27,029 JPY, $43,064 JPY less than the GeForce GTX 960 at $70,093 JPY. Despite being slower, the GeForce GTX 760 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~73% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce GTX 760 still sits about $26,810 JPY above its $219 JPY MSRP. The GeForce GTX 960 still sits about $69,894 JPY above its $199 JPY MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
At 120W against 170W, the GeForce GTX 960 is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern Maxwell architecture on a TSMC 28nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
Memory & Bandwidth
The GeForce GTX 760's memory is faster — 192 GB/s versus 112 GB/s (256-bit vs 128-bit bus) — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Generation & Longevity
The GeForce GTX 960 is roughly 2 years newer than the GeForce GTX 760 (Maxwell vs Kepler), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 760 or GeForce GTX 960?
Choose the GeForce GTX 960 if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the GeForce GTX 760 stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.
