Verdict

The AMD Radeon R7 370 is a mid-range graphics card released in 2015, featuring the Trinidad PRO graphics processor built on a 28 nm process with 1,024 shading units, 64 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs. It typically comes equipped with either 2 GB or 4 GB of GDDR5 memory on a 256-bit interface, providing a memory bandwidth of approximately 179.2 GB/s, and operates with a base clock of 925 MHz that boosts up to 975 MHz. Main pros include solid 1080p performance for popular titles like League of Legends or CS:GO, a relatively affordable launch price, and support for DirectX 12. However, notable cons include its high power consumption for the performance level (110W TDP), limited DirectX 12 feature level (11_1) which can cause issues with newer titles, and the fact that it is based on older GCN 1.0 architecture that lacks modern features like FreeSync.
