Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX Titan Black vs Radeon R9 285
IntroThe GeForce GTX Titan Black comes with a core clock frequency of 889 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 1750 MHz. It also features a 384-bit bus, and makes use of a 28 nm design. It features 2880 SPUs, 240 TAUs, and 48 Raster Operation Units.Compare those specifications to the Radeon R9 285, which makes use of a 28 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 918 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM is set to run at a speed of 1375 MHz on this card. It features 1792 SPUs along with 112 TAUs and 32 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically, the GeForce GTX Titan Black should perform quite a bit faster than the Radeon R9 285 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX Titan Black should be quite a bit (more or less 108%) more effective at AF than the Radeon R9 285. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with a high screen resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX Titan Black is the winner, by far. (explain)
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. Price Comparison

Display Specifications
Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the largest amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred across the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics 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 amount of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units 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 is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
