GeForce GTX TITAN Z vs Radeon R9 380: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce GTX TITAN Z vs Radeon R9 380
The GeForce GTX TITAN Z is dramatically faster, around 67% ahead of the Radeon R9 380. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.
Power & Efficiency
At 190W against 375W, the Radeon R9 380 is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern GCN 3.0 architecture on a TSMC 28nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The GeForce GTX TITAN Z carries 12GB versus 2GB on the Radeon R9 380. The extra 10GB helps at 4K, with high-resolution texture packs, and for content-creation or local-AI workloads that exhaust smaller buffers.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX TITAN Z brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon R9 380 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 TITAN Z or Radeon R9 380?
The GeForce GTX TITAN Z is the faster card by about 67%. 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.
