How are AMD's "X" and Nvidia's "TI" cards different from their cards without the designation?

This question is difficult for me to ask because I don't quite know how to word it. I know the cards get higher benchmarks and the specs are better, but I'm not quite sure what they mean. Are they the same cards and just improved? Overclocked versions of the cards? I've heard the term "unlocked" thrown around a few times too.

Thank you, and I'm sorry for the confusing question.

It's basically indicating a half step over the non-X or non-Ti versions. There's really no way to generalize more than that; they are a little bit faster/higher performing with the X or Ti. In some cases, the GPU is exactly the same, but with more shader cores (390 > 390X, Fury > FuryX); in other cases, its a completely different GPU (GTX 980 > GTX 980 Ti).

Some X part only have higher clock. Some X parts have larger number of stream processors. Some X parts are made on an entirely different architecture.

Same, more or less, could be said for the TI designation.

The point being - the X designation is to indicate that it stands between two models - performance and price wise. And that is it. For other information - you just need to find the full specs. There is no general explanation that takes all designations - it is always model specific.

X and Ti are , simply put , more powerful than their non X or non Ti counterparts ..

Black Edition and K denote unlocked parts ..
