Compare any two graphics cards:
Geforce GTX 780 vs Radeon R9 390X 8G
IntroThe Geforce GTX 780 makes use of a 28 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core frequency at 863 MHz. The GDDR5 memory works at a frequency of 1502 MHz on this particular card. It features 2304 SPUs along with 192 TAUs and 48 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specs to the Radeon R9 390X 8G, which uses a 28 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 1050 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM works at a frequency of 1500 MHz on this model. It features 2816 SPUs as well as 176 Texture Address Units and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthAs far as performance goes, the Radeon R9 390X 8G should in theory be quite a bit better than the Geforce GTX 780 in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon R9 390X 8G will be a small bit (approximately 12%) better at AF than the Geforce GTX 780. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon R9 390X 8G should be a lot (about 62%) better at full screen anti-aliasing than the Geforce GTX 780, and also able to handle higher resolutions better. (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 max amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in one second. It's calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in a 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. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
