GeForce GT 440 3GB vs Radeon R9 M375

Intro

The GeForce GT 440 3GB comes with a core clock frequency of 594 MHz and a GDDR3 memory speed of 900 MHz. It also makes use of a 192-bit bus, and makes use of a 40 nm design. It is made up of 144 SPUs, 24 Texture Address Units, and 24 Raster Operation Units.

Compare all that to the Radeon R9 M375, which features core clock speeds of 1015 MHz on the GPU, and 1100 MHz on the 4096 MB of DDR3 memory. It features 640 SPUs along with 40 TAUs and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the GeForce GT 440 3GB will be 23% faster than the Radeon R9 M375 in general, due to its greater bandwidth. (explain)

GeForce GT 440 3GB 43200 MB/sec
Radeon R9 M375 35200 MB/sec
Difference: 8000 (23%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon R9 M375 should be much (more or less 185%) faster with regards to AF than the GeForce GT 440 3GB. (explain)

Radeon R9 M375 40600 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GT 440 3GB 14256 Mtexels/sec
Difference: 26344 (185%)

Pixel Rate

If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon R9 M375 is a better choice, though not by far. (explain)

Radeon R9 M375 16240 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GT 440 3GB 14256 Mpixels/sec
Difference: 1984 (14%)

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.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of information (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better 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 per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly write to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
