Nvidia Titan X vs Radeon R7 M360

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon R7 M360, which uses a 28 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 1125 MHz. The DDR3 memory works at a frequency of 1000 MHz on this card. It features 384 SPUs along with 24 Texture Address Units and 8 ROPs.

Nvidia Titan X		317408 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R7 M360		27000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 290408 (1076%)

Pixel Rate

The Nvidia Titan X will be a lot (approximately 1411%) more effective at anti-aliasing than the Radeon R7 M360, and also capable of handling higher resolutions while still performing well. (explain)

Nvidia Titan X		136032 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R7 M360		9000 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 127032 (1411%)

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

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video 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 speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
