GeForce GTX 1630 vs Radeon R9 M275X

Intro

The GeForce GTX 1630 features a GPU core speed of 1740 MHz, and the 4096 MB of GDDR6 RAM is set to run at 1500 MHz through a 64-bit bus. It also features 512 SPUs, 32 Texture Address Units, and 16 ROPs.

Compare those specifications to the Radeon R9 M275X, which uses a 28 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 900 MHz. The GDDR5 memory works at a speed of 1125 MHz on this specific card. It features 640 SPUs along with 40 TAUs and 16 ROPs.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (measured in MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the bus 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 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

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

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