Compare any two graphics cards:
Geforce GTX 670 vs Radeon HD 7850
IntroThe Geforce GTX 670 uses a 28 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core frequency at 915 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM runs at a frequency of 1500 MHz on this particular model. It features 1344 SPUs along with 112 Texture Address Units and 32 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon HD 7850, which features clock speeds of 860 MHz on the GPU, and 1200 MHz on the 2048 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 1024 SPUs along with 64 TAUs and 32 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthIn theory, the Geforce GTX 670 should perform much faster than the Radeon HD 7850 in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe Geforce GTX 670 is a lot (approximately 86%) more effective at texture filtering than the Radeon HD 7850. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Geforce GTX 670 is a little bit (more or less 6%) more effective at AA than the Radeon HD 7850, and also capable of handling higher screen resolutions better. (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 max amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that are processed in one second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card can possibly write to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.

2 Responses to “Geforce GTX 670 vs Radeon HD 7850”I have recently bought GTX 670...due to HD 7850 wasn't enough powerfull to max out my brand new Crysis 3 game!
I was Between GTX 670 and HD 7970 but considering that GTX 670 is using much lower power consumption and have more overclock stabillity than HD 7970 was the reason that i bought GTX 670!!!
Both cards are great if you play sport/rpg/simulator/strategy games then go for AMD if you play games like Battlefield 3 or Crysis 3 or Batman Arkham city then nVidia all the way!
Moreover nVidia drivers are much better than ATi's is!
So I bought the HD 7850 and I overclocked it to 1050 mhz Core Clock and 1450 mhz Memory Clock WITHOUT any changes to power! This GPU is simply a beast if you OC it. Its even better than an R9 270X now. I deffinately recommend you to buy it. It is really cheap and it can run Fallout 4 on max setting easily!
