Reviews last updated: June 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about AMD Radeon R7 360

  • Excellent value for money, frequently cited as a top choice for ultra-budget builds
  • Competent performance in esports titles like League of Legends and popular older games like GTA V
  • Full support for DirectX 12, ensuring compatibility with many modern software titles
  • Generally quiet operation and reliable build quality from various board partners
  • Significant upgrade over integrated graphics or older entry-level cards like the GT 730

What we don't like about AMD Radeon R7 360

  • Struggles with modern AAA games, often requiring low settings or lower resolutions (e.g., 900p) for playable frame rates
  • Relatively high power consumption and heat dissipation compared to more efficient architectures
  • Limited 2GB VRAM can cause stuttering or unplayable performance in texture-heavy games
  • Often outperformed by the Nvidia GTX 750 Ti, which frequently offered better efficiency and speed at a similar price point
  • Reused architecture leads to a lack of refinement compared to newer GPU generations

Verdict

The AMD Radeon R7 360 is a budget-friendly graphics card launched in June 2015, utilizing the Tobago GPU core based on GCN 2.0 architecture and a 28 nm manufacturing process. It features 2 GB of GDDR5 memory on a 128-bit bus with a bandwidth of up to 112 GB/s, alongside 768 shading units, 48 texture mapping units, and 16 ROPs. Main characteristics include a base clock of 1,000 MHz (boostable to 1,050 MHz) and support for DirectX 12 and AMD FreeSync, making it a capable option for entry-level 1080p gaming and popular MOBA titles. Its primary pros are its affordable launch price of $109, a compact single-slot design ideal for small form factor cases, and broad compatibility due to needing only a single 6-pin power connector with a 100W TDP. However, notable cons include its limited 2 GB VRAM which struggles with modern texture-heavy titles, the card's age placing it into a legacy support model with no further driver updates, and its general inability to maintain smooth performance in demanding triple-A games at high settings.
