Compare any two graphics cards:
Geforce GTX 690 vs Geforce GTX 760
IntroThe Geforce GTX 690 uses a 28 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core frequency at 915 MHz. The GDDR5 memory runs at a speed of 1502 MHz on this particular model. It features 1536 SPUs along with 128 Texture Address Units and 32 ROPs.Compare those specs to the Geforce GTX 760, which comes with a core clock frequency of 980 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1502 MHz. It also features a 256-bit memory bus, and uses a 28 nm design. It is comprised of 1152 SPUs, 96 Texture Address Units, and 32 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the Geforce GTX 690 should be 100% faster than the Geforce GTX 760 overall, because of its higher bandwidth. (explain)
Texel RateThe Geforce GTX 690 is a lot (about 149%) better at AF than the Geforce GTX 760. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Geforce GTX 690 should be quite a bit (approximately 87%) better at full screen anti-aliasing than the Geforce GTX 760, and will be capable of handling higher screen resolutions while still performing well. (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. One or more cards in this comparison are multi-core. This means that their bandwidth, texel and pixel rates are theoretically doubled - this does not mean the card will actually perform twice as fast, but only that it should in theory be able to. Actual game benchmarks will give a more accurate idea of what it's capable of. Price Comparison

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transferred across the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the graphics card can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate also depends on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
