Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 880M vs GeForce GTX 950
IntroThe GeForce GTX 880M comes with core clock speeds of 954 MHz on the GPU, and 1000 MHz on the 4096 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 1536 SPUs along with 128 Texture Address Units and 32 ROPs.Compare all of that to the GeForce GTX 950, which features a core clock frequency of 1024 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 1652 MHz. It also features a 128-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 28 nm design. It features 768 SPUs, 48 Texture Address Units, and 32 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the GeForce GTX 880M will be 21% faster than the GeForce GTX 950 overall, because of its greater data rate. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 880M should be quite a bit (about 148%) faster with regards to AF than the GeForce GTX 950. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 950 should be a bit (about 7%) more effective at FSAA than the GeForce GTX 880M, and will be able to handle higher resolutions better. (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: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of information (in units of megabytes per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type memory, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card could possibly write to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
