Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 1050 3GB vs GeForce GTX 465
IntroThe GeForce GTX 1050 3GB makes use of a 14 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core speed at 1392 MHz. The GDDR5 memory works at a frequency of 1750 MHz on this specific model. It features 768 SPUs as well as 48 Texture Address Units and 24 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare all of that to the GeForce GTX 465, which has clock speeds of 607 MHz on the GPU, and 802 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 352 SPUs as well as 44 Texture Address Units and 32 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthPerformance-wise, the GeForce GTX 465 should theoretically be a bit superior to the GeForce GTX 1050 3GB in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 1050 3GB should be quite a bit (more or less 150%) faster with regards to AF than the GeForce GTX 465. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 1050 3GB will be much (about 72%) more effective at full screen anti-aliasing than the GeForce GTX 465, and also will be able to handle higher screen resolutions without slowing down too much. (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 max amount of information (counted in MB per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock 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 in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the graphics card can possibly write to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs 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 fill rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
