TMUs: texture mapping units. This unit was a physical processor separated from the main graphics processing units. It is able to distort a bitmap image, and also to resize it, to rotate it and to place it as a texture onto a plane of a specific 3D model.
ROPs: render output units. The other name of this unit is raster operations pipeline. This hadware component is taking pixel and texel information, and processing it through vector and matrix operations. The result will be a depth value or a final pixel. It is able to control antialiasing with the merge of several sample into one pixel.
SM / SMX, CUs (compute units) : streaming multiprocessor. These processors are implied in the Kepler's power efficiency when the GPU is using one unified clock speed.
The term pixel fillrate is refering to the number of pixels that the video card is able to generate every second. This performance is achieved by multiplying the raster output units (ROPs) by the clock frequency of the graphics processor unit (GPU).
The term texture fillrate refers to the number of map texture elements (texels) that the GPU is capable of generating per second. This performance is achieved by multiplying the texture mapping units (TMUs) by the clock frequency of the graphics processor unit.
