GeForce GT 430 vs Radeon R9 M375

Intro

The GeForce GT 430 has core speeds of 700 MHz on the GPU, and 900 MHz on the 512 MB of GDDR3 memory. It features 96 SPUs along with 16 TAUs and 4 Rasterization Operator Units.

Compare all that to the Radeon R9 M375, which makes use of a 28 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 1015 MHz. The DDR3 RAM runs at a frequency of 1100 MHz on this particular model. It features 640 SPUs as well as 40 TAUs and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Radeon R9 M375 will be 22% faster than the GeForce GT 430 in general, because of its higher data rate. (explain)

Radeon R9 M375 35200 MB/sec
GeForce GT 430 28800 MB/sec
Difference: 6400 (22%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon R9 M375 should be a lot (approximately 263%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GT 430. (explain)

Radeon R9 M375 40600 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GT 430 11200 Mtexels/sec
Difference: 29400 (263%)

Pixel Rate

If using a high screen resolution is important to you, then the Radeon R9 M375 is superior to the GeForce GT 430, and very much so. (explain)

Radeon R9 M375 16240 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GT 430 2800 Mpixels/sec
Difference: 13440 (480%)

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.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the max amount of data (measured in MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface within a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This 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 video 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 number of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
