Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce 8800 GTX vs GeForce GTX 750 Ti
IntroThe GeForce 8800 GTX uses a 90 nm design. nVidia has set the core frequency at 575 MHz. The GDDR3 memory works at a frequency of 900 MHz on this particular model. It features 128 SPUs as well as 64 TAUs and 24 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specs to the GeForce GTX 750 Ti, which features GPU clock speed of 1020 MHz, and 2048 MB of GDDR5 RAM running at 1350 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is comprised of 640 SPUs, 40 Texture Address Units, and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthBoth cards have the exact same memory bandwidth, so in theory they should have identical performance. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 750 Ti will be just a bit (more or less 11%) more effective at AF than the GeForce 8800 GTX. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 750 Ti will be just a bit (more or less 18%) better at FSAA than the GeForce 8800 GTX, and 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. Price Comparison

Display Specifications
Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of information (counted in MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster 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 are applied in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
