HIS R7 360 iCooler OC 2GB Video Card Review

Videocards/VGA Reviews by stefan @ 2015-09-07

The R7 360 OC iCooler video card from HIS is designed with a custom cooling system in order to stay cool at all times, but the GPU is not too potent since we have the same solution we have found with the previous AMD Radeon R7 260 but with higher clocks from the box and 2GB of memory buffer instead of 1GB on a 128-bit memory bus. The manufacturer has boosted a bit the GPU clock since we are dealing with an “OC” card; we are saying a bit because the boost is only by 20MHz and the card is capable of much more as we have seen from our overclocking tests.

The R7 360 OC iCooler video card from HIS is designed with a custom cooling system in order to stay cool at all times, but the GPU is not too potent since we have the same solution we have found with the previous AMD Radeon R7 260 but with higher clocks from the box and 2GB of memory buffer instead of 1GB on a 128-bit memory bus. The manufacturer has boosted a bit the GPU clock since we are dealing with an “OC” card; we are saying a bit because the boost is only by 20MHz and the card is capable of much more as we have seen from our overclocking tests.

 

Speaking of the overclocking tests, we have succeeded to raise the GPU clocks up to an impressive 1274MHz from the original 1070MHz, while the memory was upped to 1699MHz. The 3DMark Performance test score was increased too:

 

 

 

Despite the high overclocking capabilities, the HIS R7 360 remains a card from the low-end segment, mainly meant for running games at higher details than integrated CPU graphics like recent MOBA titles or older games.

 

We would like to thank again to HIS for making this review possible!
