Radeon R9 M375X vs Radeon RX 560

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 560, which comes with GPU core speed of 1175 MHz, and 4096 MB of GDDR5 memory set to run at 1750 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is made up of 1024 SPUs, 64 Texture Address Units, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Radeon RX 560 should be much faster than the Radeon R9 M375X overall. (explain)

Radeon RX 560		114688 MB/sec
Radeon R9 M375X		72000 MB/sec
	Difference: 42688 (59%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 560 should be a lot (more or less 85%) faster with regards to AF than the Radeon R9 M375X. (explain)

Radeon RX 560		75200 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R9 M375X		40600 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 34600 (85%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 560 should be a little bit (approximately 16%) faster with regards to AA than the Radeon R9 M375X, and also should be able to handle higher resolutions without losing too much performance. (explain)

Radeon RX 560		18800 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R9 M375X		16240 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 2560 (16%)

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 largest amount of information (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the clock 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 rate also depends on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
