Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon R9 M270X vs Radeon R9 M365X
IntroThe Radeon R9 M270X makes use of a 28 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 725 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM is set to run at a speed of 1125 MHz on this model. It features 640 SPUs along with 40 TAUs and 16 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon R9 M365X, which comes with clock speeds of 925 MHz on the GPU, and 1125 MHz on the 4096 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 640 SPUs along with 40 TAUs and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksMemory BandwidthBoth cards have the exact same memory bandwidth, so in theory they should have the same performance. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon R9 M365X should be a lot (about 28%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon R9 M270X. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon R9 M365X is the winner, by a large margin. (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: Bandwidth is the largest amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the graphics 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 maximum number of pixels that the graphics card could possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
