Radeon R7 370 4G		110 Watts
GeForce GTX Titan X		250 Watts
	Difference: 140 Watts (127%)

Memory Bandwidth

The GeForce GTX Titan X, in theory, should perform a lot faster than the Radeon R7 370 4G in general. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		336000 MB/sec
Radeon R7 370 4G		179200 MB/sec
	Difference: 156800 (88%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX Titan X should be quite a bit (more or less 208%) more effective at texture filtering than the Radeon R7 370 4G. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		192000 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R7 370 4G		62400 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 129600 (208%)

Pixel Rate

If using a high screen resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX Titan X is the winner, and very much so. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		96000 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R7 370 4G		31200 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 64800 (208%)

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 largest amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transferred across the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, 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 most pixels that the graphics card could possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
