GeForce 830M vs GeForce GTX Titan X

Intro

The GeForce 830M comes with a core clock frequency of 1029 MHz and a DDR3 memory speed of 900 MHz. It also features a 64-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 28 nm design. It features 256 SPUs, 16 Texture Address Units, and 8 ROPs.

Compare all that to the GeForce GTX Titan X, which has a clock frequency of 1000 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 1750 MHz. It also features a 384-bit memory bus, and uses a 28 nm design. It features 3072 SPUs, 192 Texture Address Units, and 96 Raster Operation Units.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of information (measured in MB per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, 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 number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed 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 this number, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly write to its local memory per 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 - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
