Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 980 vs Geforce GTX 770
IntroThe GeForce GTX 980 features a core clock frequency of 1126 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1750 MHz. It also uses a 256-bit bus, and makes use of a 28 nm design. It is made up of 2048 SPUs, 128 TAUs, and 64 ROPs.Compare those specs to the Geforce GTX 770, which features GPU clock speed of 1046 MHz, and 2048 MB of GDDR5 memory set to run at 1753 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also is comprised of 1536 SPUs, 128 TAUs, and 32 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe Geforce GTX 770, in theory, should be just a bit faster than the GeForce GTX 980 in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 980 is a small bit (approximately 8%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the Geforce GTX 770. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 980 should be a lot (about 115%) faster with regards to full screen anti-aliasing than the Geforce GTX 770, and should be capable of handling higher resolutions without losing too much performance. (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 largest amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in a second. It's calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR type memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the 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 number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This number 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 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 that the graphics card could possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends 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.
