GeForce 810M vs Radeon R9 M375

Intro

Compare those specs to the Radeon R9 M375, which comes with GPU clock speed of 1015 MHz, and 4096 MB of DDR3 RAM set to run at 1100 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is made up of 640 Stream Processors, 40 Texture Address Units, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Radeon R9 M375 should perform quite a bit faster than the GeForce 810M in general. (explain)

Radeon R9 M375		35200 MB/sec
GeForce 810M		14400 MB/sec
	Difference: 20800 (144%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon R9 M375 should be a lot (approximately 588%) more effective at texture filtering than the GeForce 810M. (explain)

Radeon R9 M375		40600 Mtexels/sec
GeForce 810M		5904 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 34696 (588%)

Pixel Rate

If running with a high resolution is important to you, then the Radeon R9 M375 is a better choice, and very much so. (explain)

Radeon R9 M375		16240 Mpixels/sec
GeForce 810M		2952 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 13288 (450%)

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 transferred past the external memory interface in one second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed in one second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core 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 in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
