GeForce GTX 1070 vs Radeon R9 390X: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce GTX 1070 vs Radeon R9 390X
The GeForce GTX 1070 is dramatically faster, around 120% ahead of the Radeon R9 390X. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.
Power & Efficiency
At 150W against 275W, the GeForce GTX 1070 is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern Pascal architecture on a TSMC 16nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1070 brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon R9 390X 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 1070 or Radeon R9 390X?
The GeForce GTX 1070 is the faster card by about 120%. 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.
