GeForce GTX 675MX vs Radeon R9 360: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

GeForce GTX 675MX

2012

Why buy it

✅115.1% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
✅100% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (4 GB vs 2 GB).

Trade-offs

❌2012 hardware with 4 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 30.6 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $99 MSRP).
❌233.3% higher power demand at 100W vs 30W.

Radeon R9 360

2015

Why buy it

✅Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 30.6 vs 0 G3D/$ ($99 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
✅GeForce GTX 675MX is already obsolete for modern gaming, so Radeon R9 360 is the less risky modern option long term.
✅Draws 30W instead of 100W, a 70W reduction.

Trade-offs

❌Lower average FPS than GeForce GTX 675MX across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
❌Less VRAM, with 2 GB vs 4 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌2015 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?

GeForce GTX 675MX is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 115.1% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. PassMark G3D leans toward Radeon R9 360 instead at 3,032 vs 2,951, so for this question the real-game FPS result matters more than the synthetic split.

Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?

Radeon R9 360 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: the newer upscaling stack, FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack and a newer 2015 generation instead of 2012. That makes it the less risky pick as game demands keep moving.

Which GPU is the better buy today?

Radeon R9 360 makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup. GeForce GTX 675MX still makes more sense if max raw gaming performance matters more than value.
