Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 750 vs Radeon R9 280X
IntroThe GeForce GTX 750 makes use of a 28 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core frequency at 1020 MHz. The GDDR5 memory runs at a speed of 1250 MHz on this particular card. It features 512 SPUs as well as 32 Texture Address Units and 16 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon R9 280X, which comes with core speeds of 850 MHz on the GPU, and 1500 MHz on the 3072 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 2048 SPUs along with 128 TAUs and 32 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthPerformance-wise, the Radeon R9 280X should theoretically be quite a bit superior to the GeForce GTX 750 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon R9 280X should be quite a bit (approximately 233%) faster with regards to anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX 750. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon R9 280X is quite a bit (approximately 67%) faster with regards to FSAA than the GeForce GTX 750, and also will be capable of handling higher screen resolutions without slowing down too much. (explain)
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

Display Specifications
Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the largest amount of information (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at 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 record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate also depends on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
