SAPPHIRE NITRO Radeon R7 360 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card 100388NTOCL

For Every PC Gamers

The new SAPPHIRE NITRO series graphics cards give you more than your money’s worth by combining maximum performance, quality, reliability and stability. They employ a range of advanced features only can be found on high-end graphics cards, including long-life capacitors, award-winning Black Diamond Chokes, and SAPPHIRE’s exclusive award-winning cooling solutions (only select models). The SAPPHIRE NITRO series is available in various AMD Radeon GPUs, such as R7 360, R7 370, R9 380, and R9 390. Choose the level of graphics power to fit your specific gaming needs. An array of AMD graphics effect technologies of the AMD Radeon R7 and R9 GPUs contribute to truly immersive gameplay. With sleek, elegant, black and gunmetal styling, the SAPPHIRE NITRO series suits any build.

The SAPPHIRE NITRO R7 360 provides rich graphics features at an affordable price, perfect for casual gamers. The powerful single fan design keeps the card cool. And with the latest GCN architecture from AMD, it supports DirectX 12, TrueAudio, and AMD FreeSync. Its 2GB frame buffer makes it a great general purpose graphics accelerator, and with a SAPPHIRE Performance Index of 1 it is the ideal choice for online gaming at 1080p.

LiquidVR is an AMD initiative dedicated to making VR as comfortable and realistic as possible by creating and maintaining what’s known as “presence” — a state of immersive awareness where situations, objects, or characters within the virtual world seem “real.” Guided by close collaboration with key technology partners in the ecosystem, LiquidVR uses AMD’s GPU software and hardware sub-systems to tackle the common issues and pitfalls of achieving presence, such as reducing motion-to-photon latency to less than 10 milliseconds. This is a crucial step in addressing the common discomforts, such as motion sickness, that may occur when you turn your head in a virtual world and it takes even a few milliseconds too long for a new perspective to be shown.

AMD TrueAudio technology brings the world’s first programmable audio pipeline marking a new frontier in realism for PC gamers. AMD TrueAudio technology empowers game developers with a programmable audio pipeline on the GPU, inviting them to put their unique artistic fingerprint on in-game audio in the same way that the programmable graphics pipeline brought unfettered artistic vision to PC graphics. Enabled games can feature more realistic environmental dynamics, a richer tapestry of sound effects, breathtaking directional audio and more. AMD TrueAudio technology enhances audio realism by simulating the human brain’s perception of real-world sound, working in concert with the user’s existing audio hardware to recreate a lifelike experience.

AMD FreeSync technology allows a compatible graphics card and monitor to dynamically change frame rates for the optimum display quality without tearing or stuttering.

Freesync uses industry-standard DisplayPort Adaptive-Sync to eliminate screen tearing without all the usual lag and latency.

• Synchronizes the refresh rate of a compatible monitor to the frame rate of your content, however much it varies
• Monitor partners are validating with drivers from AMD now

DirectX 12 is a new, “console-like” graphics API from Microsoft that empowers game developers with more direct and obvious control of PC hardware. This direct or “explicit” control better exposes the hardware resources of AMD Radeon GPUs to yield higher hardware throughput and, ultimately, more performance for users. To put it simply: much more efficient hardware through smarter software! At the discretion of a game developer, this superior efficiency can be spent on higher framerates, lower latency (VR), lower power consumption, better image quality, or some calculated balance of all four. In any scenario, gamers stand to benefit greatly from choosing AMD hardware to run their favorite DirectX 12 game.

AMD Eyefinity technology expands the traditional limits of desktop computing by multiplying your screen area. With multiple monitors, games become more immersive, workstations become more useful and you become more productive (an average of 42% more productive according to one study).

AMD CrossFire technology is the ultimate multi-GPU performance gaming platform. Unlocking game-dominating power, AMD CrossFire harnesses the power of two or more discrete graphics cards working in parallel to dramatically improve gaming performance. AMD CrossFire technology ready graphics cards fit practically every budget. With the flexibility to combine two, three or four GPUs, AMD CrossFire technology is the perfect solution for those who demand extreme performance.

This product supports both Legacy and UEFI BIOS. By factory default, the card itself is under Legacy mode. By pressing the button with SAPPHIRE logo, UEFI mode will be easily enabled.

Secure boot

Sapphire product with “Dual Firmware Support” function equips the UEFI firmware that is digitally signed and approved by Microsoft for Secure Boot. With Windows8’s secured boot architecture and its establishment of a root of trust, the customer is protected from malicious code executing in the boot path by ensuring that only signed, certified “known good” code and boot loaders can execute before the opening system itself loads.

Faster boot and resume times

When compare to the legacy BIOS, system with UEFI has a much faster boot and resume time to the OS.

Intelligent fan control allows one or more fans to be stopped for lower noise when the card is under light load and automatically restarted when the card temperature rises
