Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Both cards have the same power consumption.

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti will be 2% faster than the Radeon RX 460 2GB in general, because of its greater bandwidth. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1050 Ti		114688 MB/sec
Radeon RX 460 2GB		112000 MB/sec
	Difference: 2688 (2%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti should be a little bit (approximately 1%) better at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon RX 460 2GB. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1050 Ti		61920 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 460 2GB		61040 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 880 (1%)

Pixel Rate

If running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is the winner, and very much so. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1050 Ti		41280 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 460 2GB		17440 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 23840 (137%)

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: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (measured in MB per second) that can be transferred across the external memory interface within a second. It's worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better 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 amount of pixels the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
