Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GT 130 vs Radeon R7 M265
IntroThe GeForce GT 130 has clock speeds of 500 MHz on the GPU, and 250 MHz on the 768 MB of DDR2 RAM. It features 48 SPUs along with 24 Texture Address Units and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specs to the Radeon R7 M265, which features core clock speeds of 725 MHz on the GPU, and 1000 MHz on the 2048 MB of DDR3 RAM. It features 384 SPUs along with 24 TAUs and 8 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksMemory BandwidthAs far as performance goes, the Radeon R7 M265 should in theory be quite a bit better than the GeForce GT 130 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon R7 M265 is much (about 45%) more effective at texture filtering than the GeForce GT 130. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using a high screen resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GT 130 is superior to the Radeon R7 M265, by a large margin. (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 maximum amount of data (measured in MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, 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 applied per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
