GeForce GTX 760 Ti vs Radeon R9 M295X: 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 760 Ti

2013

Why buy it

  • 0.8% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Costs $51 less on MSRP ($249 MSRP vs $300 MSRP).
  • Delivers 24.2% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 21.3 vs 17.2 G3D/$ ($249 MSRP vs $300 MSRP).

Trade-offs

  • Less VRAM, with 2 GB vs 4 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • 2013 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • 24000% longer card at 241mm vs 1mm.

Radeon R9 M295X

2014

Why buy it
