In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the AMD Radeon R9 370X are significantly better than the AMD Radeon R7 360X.
The Radeon R7 360X has a 100 MHz higher core clock speed than the Radeon R9 370X, but the Radeon R9 370X has 24 more Texture Mapping Units than the Radeon R7 360X. As a result, the Radeon R9 370X exhibits a 18.4 GTexel/s better Texture Fill Rate than the Radeon R7 360X. This still holds weight but shader performance is generally more relevant, particularly since both of these GPUs support at least DirectX 10.
The Radeon R7 360X has a 100 MHz higher core clock speed than the Radeon R9 370X, but the Radeon R9 370X has 16 more Render Output Units than the Radeon R7 360X. As a result, the Radeon R9 370X exhibits a 14.4 GPixel/s better Pixel Fill Rate than the Radeon R7 360X. However, both GPUs support DirectX 9 or above, and pixeling performance is only really relevant when comparing older cards.
The Radeon R7 360X was released less than a year after the Radeon R9 370X, and so they are likely to have similar driver support for optimizing performance when running the latest games.
The Radeon R9 370X and the Radeon R7 360X have the same amount of video memory, but are likely to provide slightly different experiences when displaying game textures at high resolutions.
The Radeon R9 370X has 75.2 GB/sec greater memory bandwidth than the Radeon R7 360X, which means that the memory performance of the Radeon R9 370X is much better than the Radeon R7 360X.
The Radeon R9 370X has 1280 Shader Processing Units and the Radeon R7 360X has 896. However, the actual shader performance of the Radeon R9 370X is 1142 and the actual shader performance of the Radeon R7 360X is 876. The Radeon R9 370X having 266 better shader performance and an altogether better performance when taking into account other relevant data means that the Radeon R9 370X delivers a massively smoother and more efficient experience when processing graphical data than the Radeon R7 360X.
The Radeon R9 370X requires 180 Watts to run and the Radeon R7 360X requires 120 Watts. We would recommend a PSU with at least 500 Watts for the Radeon R9 370X and a PSU with at least 500 Watts for the Radeon R7 360X. The Radeon R9 370X requires 60 Watts more than the Radeon R7 360X to run. The difference is significant enough that the Radeon R9 370X may have an adverse affect on your yearly electricity bills in comparison to the Radeon R7 360X.

| Mini Review | Overview Radeon R9 370X is a Performance Graphics Card based on the First Revision of the Graphics Core Next (GCN) Architecture. Architecture Radeon R9 370X Features a GPU Codenamed Trinidad XT which is a First Gen GCN GPU. It is essentially a Pitcairn XT GPU like seen on Radeon HD 7870. As a result, it doesn't support for modern technologies like TrueAudio, ZeroPower or Powertune. Trinidad XT has 20 Compute Units Unlocked and offers 1280 Shader Processing Units, 80 TMUs and 32 ROPs. GPU The Central Unit is Initially Clocked at 1000MHz and goes up to 1050MHz, in Turbo Mode. Memory: Speed The GPU is equipped with fast GDDR5 and Accesses the Frame Buffer through a 256-bit Memory Interface. The Memory Clock Operates at 1400MHz. Memory: Frame Buffer The GPU can fill up a Memory Pool of up to 2GB. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 110W, it requires at least a 500W PSU with one available 6-pin connector. Performance Performance is identical to Radeon R9 270X. System Suggestions Radeon R7 370X is best suited for resolutions up to and including 1920x1080. We recommend a Performance Processor and 8GB of RAM for Optimal Performance. | Overview Radeon R7 360X is a Fast-Middle-Class Graphics Card based on the Second Revision of the Graphics Core Next (GCN) Architecture. Architecture The GCN 1.2 revision of the Graphics Core Next Architecture improves memory bandwidth performance which allows AMD to produce Graphics Cards with smaller data transfer rates without causing too much impact on the overall performance. This is done by using lossless delta color compression. GCN 1.2 also adds improved Tesselation and video encoding/decoding performance as well as DirectX 12.0 Support. GPU It equips a GPU Codenamed Tobago XT which has 16 Compute Units activated and thus offers 896 Shader Processing Units, 56 TMUs and 16 ROPs. The Central Unit is initially clocked at 1100MHz and goes up to 1150MHz, in Turbo Mode. Memory The GPU accesses a 2GB frame buffer of fast GDDR5, through a 128-bit memory interface. The size of the frame buffer is adequate. The Memory Clock Operates at 1625MHz. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 120W, it requires at least a 500W PSU with one available 6-pin connector. Performance Product Not Released. Performance Not Known Yet. System Suggestions Radeon R7 360X 2GB is best suited for resolutions up to and including 1600x900. We recommend a Decent Processor (Intel Core i3 Dual Core/AMD FX Quad Core) and 8GB of RAM for Optimal Performance. | |||
