Nvidia Titan X vs Radeon HD 5750 512MB

Intro

Compare those specs to the Radeon HD 5750 512MB, which makes use of a 40 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 700 MHz. The GDDR5 memory runs at a speed of 1150 MHz on this card. It features 720(144x5) SPUs as well as 36 TAUs and 16 ROPs.

Radeon HD 5750 512MB		86 Watts
Nvidia Titan X		250 Watts
	Difference: 164 Watts (191%)

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the Nvidia Titan X should be 568% faster than the Radeon HD 5750 512MB in general, because of its higher data rate. (explain)

Nvidia Titan X		491520 MB/sec
Radeon HD 5750 512MB		73600 MB/sec
	Difference: 417920 (568%)

Texel Rate

The Nvidia Titan X will be a lot (more or less 1160%) more effective at AF than the Radeon HD 5750 512MB. (explain)

Nvidia Titan X		317408 Mtexels/sec
Radeon HD 5750 512MB		25200 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 292208 (1160%)

Pixel Rate

If running with a high screen resolution is important to you, then the Nvidia Titan X is a better choice, by far. (explain)

Nvidia Titan X		136032 Mpixels/sec
Radeon HD 5750 512MB		11200 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 124832 (1115%)

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 largest amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster 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 can be processed per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the graphics card can possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on many 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.
