Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 980 Ti vs Radeon R9 380 2G
IntroThe GeForce GTX 980 Ti uses a 28 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core speed at 1000 MHz. The GDDR5 memory runs at a speed of 1750 MHz on this particular model. It features 2816 SPUs along with 176 Texture Address Units and 96 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon R9 380 2G, which comes with a core clock frequency of 970 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1425 MHz. It also makes use of a 256-bit memory bus, and uses a 28 nm design. It is made up of 1792 SPUs, 112 TAUs, and 32 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthIn theory, the GeForce GTX 980 Ti should be much faster than the Radeon R9 380 2G in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 980 Ti is a lot (about 62%) more effective at texture filtering than the Radeon R9 380 2G. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with a high resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 980 Ti is superior to the Radeon R9 380 2G, by a large margin. (explain)
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. Price Comparison

Display Specifications
Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred across the external memory interface in one second. The number is calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are processed in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics card can possibly write to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
