Radeon R9 390 vs GeForce GTX 760: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: Radeon R9 390 vs GeForce GTX 760

The Radeon R9 390 is dramatically faster, around 150% ahead of the GeForce GTX 760. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.

Power & Efficiency

The GeForce GTX 760 pulls less power (170W vs 275W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster Radeon R9 390 draws more overall but extracts more performance from each watt — plan for a sturdier power supply if you pick it. Its more modern GCN 2.0 architecture on a TSMC 28nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

With 8GB against 2GB, the Radeon R9 390 has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce GTX 760's 2GB can fall short.

Generation & Longevity

The Radeon R9 390 is roughly 2 years newer than the GeForce GTX 760 (GCN 2.0 vs Kepler), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 760 brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon R9 390 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 760 or Radeon R9 390?

The Radeon R9 390 is the faster card by about 150%. 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Radeon R9 390 better than the GeForce GTX 760?

The Radeon R9 390 is dramatically faster, roughly 150% ahead. If your budget allows, it's the stronger pick.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the GeForce GTX 760 or the Radeon R9 390?

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.

Does the Radeon R9 390 have enough VRAM advantage to matter?

Its 8GB (vs 2GB) gives real headroom for 4K, heavy texture mods, and creative/AI work. At 1080p the gap matters less.
