Radeon R9 390 vs GeForce GTX 750: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: Radeon R9 390 vs GeForce GTX 750

The Radeon R9 390 is dramatically faster, around 400% ahead of the GeForce GTX 750. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.

Power & Efficiency

At 55W against 275W, the GeForce GTX 750 is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

The Radeon R9 390 carries 8GB versus 1GB on the GeForce GTX 750. The extra 7GB 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 750 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 750 or Radeon R9 390?

The Radeon R9 390 is the faster card by about 400%. 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 750?

The Radeon R9 390 is dramatically faster, roughly 400% ahead. If your budget allows, it's the stronger pick.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the GeForce GTX 750 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 1GB) gives real headroom for 4K, heavy texture mods, and creative/AI work. At 1080p the gap matters less.
