Geforce GTX 760 vs Radeon R9 M370X

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon R9 M370X, which comes with core speeds of 800 MHz on the GPU, and 1125 MHz on the 2048 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 640 SPUs as well as 40 TAUs and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

As far as performance goes, the Geforce GTX 760 should theoretically be much superior to the Radeon R9 M370X in general. (explain)

Geforce GTX 760		192256 MB/sec
Radeon R9 M370X		72000 MB/sec
	Difference: 120256 (167%)

Texel Rate

The Geforce GTX 760 should be quite a bit (more or less 194%) better at texture filtering than the Radeon R9 M370X. (explain)

Geforce GTX 760		94080 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R9 M370X		32000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 62080 (194%)

Pixel Rate

If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Geforce GTX 760 is the winner, by far. (explain)

Geforce GTX 760		31360 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R9 M370X		12800 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 18560 (145%)

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: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of information (measured in MB per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the better 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 can be applied in one second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the card will be at 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 in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
