GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB vs Radeon R9 M370X

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon R9 M370X, which makes use of a 28 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 800 MHz. The GDDR5 memory works at a speed of 1125 MHz on this specific model. It features 640 SPUs as well as 40 Texture Address Units and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

The GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB, in theory, should perform a bit faster than the Radeon R9 M370X in general. (explain)

GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB		86400 MB/sec
Radeon R9 M370X		72000 MB/sec
	Difference: 14400 (20%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB will be a lot (about 86%) faster with regards to anisotropic filtering than the Radeon R9 M370X. (explain)

GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB		59392 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R9 M370X		32000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 27392 (86%)

Pixel Rate

If using high levels of AA is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB is a better choice, though only just barely. (explain)

GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB		14848 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R9 M370X		12800 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 2048 (16%)

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 max amount of data (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster 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 can be applied in one second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the graphics 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 most pixels the graphics card can possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of colour 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 many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
