Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 650 Ti vs Radeon R9 M270X
IntroThe GeForce GTX 650 Ti has a core clock speed of 928 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1350 MHz. It also uses a 128-bit bus, and uses a 28 nm design. It is comprised of 768 SPUs, 64 Texture Address Units, and 16 ROPs.Compare that to the Radeon R9 M270X, which comes with core speeds of 725 MHz on the GPU, and 1125 MHz on the 2048 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 640 SPUs as well as 40 Texture Address Units and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksMemory BandwidthIn theory, the GeForce GTX 650 Ti should be 20% faster than the Radeon R9 M270X overall, because of its higher bandwidth. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 650 Ti should be a lot (about 105%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the Radeon R9 M270X. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 650 Ti is much (more or less 28%) faster with regards to full screen anti-aliasing than the Radeon R9 M270X, and able to handle higher screen resolutions without slowing down too much. (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 (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface in a second. It's calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the graphics card can possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
