GeForce 930M vs Nvidia Titan X

Intro

Compare that to the Nvidia Titan X, which has core speeds of 1417 MHz on the GPU, and 1251 MHz on the 12288 MB of GDDR5X RAM. It features 3584 SPUs as well as 224 TAUs and 96 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the Nvidia Titan X is 3313% faster than the GeForce 930M overall, because of its higher bandwidth. (explain)

Nvidia Titan X		491520 MB/sec
GeForce 930M		14400 MB/sec
	Difference: 477120 (3313%)

Texel Rate

The Nvidia Titan X should be quite a bit (about 1325%) more effective at AF than the GeForce 930M. (explain)

Nvidia Titan X		317408 Mtexels/sec
GeForce 930M		22272 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 295136 (1325%)

Pixel Rate

The Nvidia Titan X is a lot (more or less 1732%) more effective at anti-aliasing than the GeForce 930M, and also will be capable of handling higher resolutions without losing too much performance. (explain)

Nvidia Titan X		136032 Mpixels/sec
GeForce 930M		7424 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 128608 (1732%)

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 MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in a second. It's calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This is calculated 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 video 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 could possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
