GeForce GTX 1050 Ti vs Radeon R5 M330

Intro

Compare those specs to the Radeon R5 M330, which has a core clock speed of 1030 MHz and a DDR3 memory frequency of 900 MHz. It also uses a 64-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 28 nm design. It is made up of 320 SPUs, 20 TAUs, and 8 Raster Operation Units.

Radeon R5 M330		20600 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 41320 (201%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti will be a lot (approximately 401%) better at FSAA than the Radeon R5 M330, and also will be capable of handling higher resolutions better. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1050 Ti		41280 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R5 M330		8240 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 33040 (401%)

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 max amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transferred across the external memory interface in a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
