Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce 9800 GTX vs GeForce GTX 650 Ti
IntroThe GeForce 9800 GTX uses a 65 nm design. nVidia has set the core speed at 675 MHz. The GDDR3 RAM works at a frequency of 1100 MHz on this model. It features 128 SPUs as well as 64 TAUs and 16 ROPs.Compare all of that to the GeForce GTX 650 Ti, which has core clock speeds of 928 MHz on the GPU, and 1350 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 768 SPUs along with 64 TAUs and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically, the GeForce GTX 650 Ti should be quite a bit faster than the GeForce 9800 GTX in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 650 Ti will be quite a bit (approximately 37%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce 9800 GTX. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 650 Ti should be much (more or less 37%) faster with regards to FSAA than the GeForce 9800 GTX, and also should be capable of handling higher 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. Price Comparison

Display Specifications
Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of information (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface within a second. It's 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 it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
