Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 950 vs Radeon R9 M375
IntroThe GeForce GTX 950 makes use of a 28 nm design. nVidia has set the core speed at 1024 MHz. The GDDR5 memory runs at a frequency of 1652 MHz on this particular card. It features 768 SPUs along with 48 TAUs and 32 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specifications to the Radeon R9 M375, which features GPU clock speed of 1015 MHz, and 4096 MB of DDR3 memory set to run at 1100 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also features 640 Stream Processors, 40 Texture Address Units, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksMemory BandwidthIn theory, the GeForce GTX 950 is 200% quicker than the Radeon R9 M375 in general, due to its higher data rate. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 950 will be much (approximately 21%) faster with regards to AF than the Radeon R9 M375. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with a high resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 950 is the winner, and very much so. (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 maximum amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total texture units 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 processed in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
