Radeon RX 560 vs Radeon R7 360: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Radeon RX 560 vs Radeon R7 360
The Radeon RX 560 is dramatically faster, around 100% ahead of the Radeon R7 360. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p. The Radeon RX 560 packs 1,024 stream processors versus 768 on the Radeon R7 360.
Power & Efficiency
The Radeon RX 560 draws just 60W 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 GCN 4.0 (Polaris) architecture on a GloFo 14nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
Memory & Bandwidth
The Radeon RX 560's memory is faster — 112 GB/s versus 96 GB/s — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Generation & Longevity
The Radeon RX 560 is roughly 2 years newer than the Radeon R7 360 (GCN 4.0 (Polaris) vs GCN 2.0), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Which should you buy: Radeon R7 360 or Radeon RX 560?
The Radeon RX 560 is the faster card by about 100%. 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.
