GeForce GTX Titan vs GeForce GTX Titan X

Intro

Compare all of that to the GeForce GTX Titan X, which comes with a GPU core clock speed of 1000 MHz, and 12288 MB of GDDR5 memory set to run at 1750 MHz through a 384-bit bus. It also is made up of 3072 Stream Processors, 192 Texture Address Units, and 96 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Both cards have the same power consumption.

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the GeForce GTX Titan X will be 17% quicker than the GeForce GTX Titan overall, because of its greater bandwidth. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		336000 MB/sec
GeForce GTX Titan		288384 MB/sec
	Difference: 47616 (17%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX Titan X should be just a bit (more or less 2%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the GeForce GTX Titan. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		192000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX Titan		187488 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 4512 (2%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce GTX Titan X is a lot (about 139%) more effective at full screen anti-aliasing than the GeForce GTX Titan, and will be capable of handling higher screen resolutions better. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		96000 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX Titan		40176 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 55824 (139%)

Please note that the above 'benchmarks' are all just theoretical - the results were calculated based on the card's specifications, and real-world performance may (and probably will) vary at least a bit.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the max amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
