Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 660 Ti vs Radeon HD 7870
IntroThe GeForce GTX 660 Ti comes with a clock frequency of 915 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 1500 MHz. It also uses a 192-bit memory bus, and uses a 28 nm design. It is comprised of 1344 SPUs, 112 Texture Address Units, and 24 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon HD 7870, which makes use of a 28 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 1000 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM works at a frequency of 1200 MHz on this specific model. It features 1280 SPUs as well as 80 Texture Address Units and 32 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthAs far as performance goes, the Radeon HD 7870 should theoretically be a small bit better than the GeForce GTX 660 Ti overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 660 Ti will be much (about 28%) more effective at texture filtering than the Radeon HD 7870. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon HD 7870 is a better choice, 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: Memory bandwidth is the max amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This is calculated 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 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 amount of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly write to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.

NICE ATI....for 3D,Fast perform,and Gamer.
mang saya mau beli kompor 1 kintal
Ati beats nVidia alot....
