Is the R9 380 good for gaming?
The Bottom Line AMD’s Radeon R9 380 may be a retread of last year’s Radeon R9 285, but with a higher core clock speed and twice the memory, this MSI version manages to perform a bit better than Nvidia’s GTX 960, making it a good choice for gamers with 1080p, 1440p, or 2,560×1,600 screens.
How good is a Radeon R9?
The R9 390 is perfectly capable of supporting several monitors but our performance tests indicate it’s ideally suited to use with a single screen of up to 2,560 x 1,440 resolution. At 1080p it absolutely powers through all our benchmarks, all of which we run at the absolute maximum detail settings.

Is the Sapphire Radeon R9 380 4GB still good?
Not to put too fine an edge on things, but the R9 380 4GB basically cleans the 2GB 960’s clock. Perhaps slightly more sobering is that an older GTX 770 card is still managing slightly higher frame rates overall, but then that was originally a $400 GPU.
Which is better AMD R9 380 or GTX 960?
The R9 380 competes with the desktop GeForce GTX 960 and in our benchmark tests it was able to pull slightly ahead on average but stay behind the older Radeon R9 280X. Therefore, demanding games of 2015 should be playable in maximum detail settings and full HD resolution.
