GeForce GT 1030 vs Radeon HD 4350

Intro

The GeForce GT 1030 comes with a core clock frequency of 1265 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1502 MHz. It also makes use of a 64-bit bus, and makes use of a 16 nm design. It features 384 SPUs, 32 TAUs, and 16 ROPs.

Compare that to the Radeon HD 4350, which uses a 55 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 575 MHz. The DDR2 RAM is set to run at a speed of 500 MHz on this model. It features 80(16x5) SPUs along with 8 TAUs and 4 Rasterization Operator Units.

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the largest amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface in one second. It's calculated by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This figure 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 card will be at handling 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 can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
