AMD ’s xx65 cards have always been defined by entry-level prices with performance that knocks on the door of mid-range graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the GCN 1.0 graphics card inside the R7 265, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend. Compared to its NVIDIA 's closest rival, GTX 650 Ti Boost, the R7 265 was -2.7 % slower.
The R7 265 sits between the RX 560 and the HD 7850, falling slower than RX 560 by 1.3% and faster than HD 7850 by 7.3%. It has an average relative performance against every graphics card here. Its results are actually indistinguishable from those of the RX 560. Against its rival - the GTX 650 Ti Boost, the R7 265 is much slower.
