Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Both cards have the same power consumption.

Memory Bandwidth

As far as performance goes, the GeForce GTX Titan X should in theory be a little bit better than the GeForce GTX Titan in general. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		336000 MB/sec
GeForce GTX Titan		288384 MB/sec
	Difference: 47616 (17%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX Titan X should be just a bit (approximately 2%) faster with regards to AF than the GeForce GTX Titan. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		192000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX Titan		187488 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 4512 (2%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce GTX Titan X should be quite a bit (more or less 139%) better at full screen anti-aliasing than the GeForce GTX Titan, and should be capable of handling higher screen resolutions without slowing down too much. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		96000 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX Titan		40176 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 55824 (139%)

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 max amount of information (measured in MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type memory, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
