Compare any two graphics cards:
Geforce GTX 780 vs Radeon R9 M265X
IntroThe Geforce GTX 780 has a clock frequency of 863 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1502 MHz. It also features a 384-bit bus, and makes use of a 28 nm design. It is made up of 2304 SPUs, 192 Texture Address Units, and 48 ROPs.Compare all of that to the Radeon R9 M265X, which comes with GPU core speed of 575 MHz, and 2048 MB of GDDR5 memory running at 1125 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also features 640 Stream Processors, 40 TAUs, and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksMemory BandwidthPerformance-wise, the Geforce GTX 780 should theoretically be quite a bit superior to the Radeon R9 M265X overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Geforce GTX 780 should be a lot (approximately 620%) more effective at texture filtering than the Radeon R9 M265X. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Geforce GTX 780 should be a lot (more or less 350%) better at AA than the Radeon R9 M265X, and also will be able to handle higher resolutions more effectively. (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: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of data (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transferred across the external memory interface in a second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, 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 applied per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics card could possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
