Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 650 vs Radeon R9 M395X
IntroThe GeForce GTX 650 features a clock speed of 1058 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 1250 MHz. It also features a 128-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 28 nm design. It is made up of 384 SPUs, 32 Texture Address Units, and 16 ROPs.Compare all that to the Radeon R9 M395X, which comes with GPU clock speed of 723 MHz, and 4096 MB of GDDR5 RAM running at 1250 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also is comprised of 2048 SPUs, 128 Texture Address Units, and 32 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the Radeon R9 M395X should be a lot faster than the GeForce GTX 650 in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon R9 M395X is a lot (approximately 173%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX 650. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using a high screen resolution is important to you, then the Radeon R9 M395X is superior to the GeForce GTX 650, by far. (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 max amount of information (in units of MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This number 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 handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card can possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as 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 max fill rate.
