GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB vs GeForce GTX 750 Ti

Intro

Compare all that to the GeForce GTX 750 Ti, which has a core clock frequency of 1020 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 1350 MHz. It also uses a 128-bit bus, and uses a 28 nm design. It features 640 SPUs, 40 Texture Address Units, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GTX 750 Ti		60 Watts
GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB		110 Watts
	Difference: 50 Watts (83%)

Memory Bandwidth

Both cards have exactly the same bandwidth, so in theory they should have identical performance. (explain)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB should be quite a bit (approximately 46%) better at AF than the GeForce GTX 750 Ti. (explain)

GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB		59392 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 750 Ti		40800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 18592 (46%)

Pixel Rate

If using a high screen resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 750 Ti is superior to the GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB, but not by far. (explain)

GeForce GTX 750 Ti		16320 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB		14848 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 1472 (10%)

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.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics card could possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel fill rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
