Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

The GeForce GTX 750 Ti, in theory, should perform a bit faster than the Radeon R9 M265X in general. (explain)

GeForce GTX 750 Ti		86400 MB/sec
Radeon R9 M265X		72000 MB/sec
	Difference: 14400 (20%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 750 Ti should be quite a bit (approximately 77%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon R9 M265X. (explain)

GeForce GTX 750 Ti		40800 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R9 M265X		23000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 17800 (77%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce GTX 750 Ti is a lot (more or less 77%) better at full screen anti-aliasing than the Radeon R9 M265X, and also should be capable of handling higher screen resolutions while still performing well. (explain)

GeForce GTX 750 Ti		16320 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R9 M265X		9200 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 7120 (77%)

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 maximum amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in one 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 figure is calculated by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
