Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 285 1GB vs GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448
IntroThe GeForce GTX 285 1GB features core speeds of 648 MHz on the GPU, and 1242 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR3 RAM. It features 240 SPUs as well as 80 TAUs and 32 ROPs.Compare those specs to the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448, which makes use of a 40 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core frequency at 732 MHz. The GDDR5 memory runs at a speed of 900 MHz on this specific model. It features 448 SPUs along with 56 TAUs and 40 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe GeForce GTX 285 1GB should theoretically be a little bit faster than the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 285 1GB is a lot (more or less 26%) more effective at AF than the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using a high resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 is the winner, by far. (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 information (measured in MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. 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 many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
