GeForce GTX 750 vs Radeon R9 M370X

Intro

Compare that to the Radeon R9 M370X, which features core speeds of 800 MHz on the GPU, and 1125 MHz on the 2048 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 640 SPUs as well as 40 Texture Address Units and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the GeForce GTX 750 should be 11% quicker than the Radeon R9 M370X in general, due to its higher bandwidth. (explain)

GeForce GTX 750		80000 MB/sec
Radeon R9 M370X		72000 MB/sec
	Difference: 8000 (11%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 750 is just a bit (approximately 2%) faster with regards to anisotropic filtering than the Radeon R9 M370X. (explain)

GeForce GTX 750		32640 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R9 M370X		32000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 640 (2%)

Pixel Rate

If running with a high screen resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 750 is a better choice, and very much so. (explain)

GeForce GTX 750		16320 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R9 M370X		12800 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 3520 (28%)

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: Bandwidth is the largest amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the clock 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 rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
