Radeon R9 380 vs GeForce GTX 760: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: Radeon R9 380 vs GeForce GTX 760

The Radeon R9 380 is dramatically faster, around 50% ahead of the GeForce GTX 760. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.

Power & Efficiency

On power, the GeForce GTX 760 is the gentler choice at 170W versus 190W. The Radeon R9 380 is more efficient per watt because it's faster, but its higher 190W draw means more heat and a bigger PSU. Its more modern GCN 3.0 architecture on a TSMC 28nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.

Generation & Longevity

The Radeon R9 380 is roughly 2 years newer than the GeForce GTX 760 (GCN 3.0 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 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 760 or Radeon R9 380?

The Radeon R9 380 is the faster card by about 50%. 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 380 better than the GeForce GTX 760?

The Radeon R9 380 is dramatically faster, roughly 50% ahead. If your budget allows, it's the stronger pick.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the GeForce GTX 760 or the Radeon R9 380?

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.
