Radeon R9 Fury vs GeForce GT 730 specs and performance

For gaming, the Radeon R9 Fury graphics card is better than the GeForce GT 730 in our tests.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the Radeon R9 Fury has significantly more memory with 4 GiB of memory compared to 2 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In addition, the GeForce GT 730 has a significantly lower TDP at 49 W when compared to the Radeon R9 Fury at 275 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Radeon R9 Fury over the GeForce GT 730.
