GeForce GTX 1070 Ti vs Radeon R9 M370X

Intro

Compare those specs to the Radeon R9 M370X, which makes use of a 28 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 800 MHz. The GDDR5 memory runs at a frequency of 1125 MHz on this specific card. It features 640 SPUs as well as 40 Texture Address Units and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

Performance-wise, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti should in theory be a lot better than the Radeon R9 M370X in general. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1070 Ti		262144 MB/sec
Radeon R9 M370X		72000 MB/sec
	Difference: 190144 (264%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1070 Ti should be a lot (more or less 663%) better at texture filtering than the Radeon R9 M370X. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1070 Ti		244264 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R9 M370X		32000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 212264 (663%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1070 Ti is quite a bit (about 704%) faster with regards to full screen anti-aliasing than the Radeon R9 M370X, and capable of handling higher screen resolutions better. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1070 Ti		102848 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R9 M370X		12800 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 90048 (704%)

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: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface in one second. The number is worked out by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR memory, 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 anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics card could possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called 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, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
