Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Geforce GTX 770 will be 1302% quicker than the Radeon R7 M360 in general, because of its higher bandwidth. (explain)

Geforce GTX 770		224384 MB/sec
Radeon R7 M360		16000 MB/sec
	Difference: 208384 (1302%)

Texel Rate

The Geforce GTX 770 should be a lot (approximately 396%) better at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon R7 M360. (explain)

Geforce GTX 770		133888 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R7 M360		27000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 106888 (396%)

Pixel Rate

If running with a high resolution is important to you, then the Geforce GTX 770 is the winner, and very much so. (explain)

Geforce GTX 770		33472 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R7 M360		9000 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 24472 (272%)

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: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (measured in MB per second) that can be transferred past 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 memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one 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 video 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 the video card could possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
