GeForce GTX 1650 vs GeForce GTX 275

Intro

Compare all of that to the GeForce GTX 275, which comes with core speeds of 633 MHz on the GPU, and 1134 MHz on the 896 MB of GDDR3 RAM. It features 240 SPUs along with 80 Texture Address Units and 28 ROPs.

GeForce GTX 275		127008 MB/sec
	Difference: 4064 (3%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1650 is quite a bit (more or less 64%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the GeForce GTX 275. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		83160 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 275		50640 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 32520 (64%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1650 will be much (about 168%) more effective at anti-aliasing than the GeForce GTX 275, and also able to handle higher resolutions more effectively. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		47520 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 275		17724 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 29796 (168%)

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 max amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in one second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the 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 most pixels the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the the core 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 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 reach the maximum fill rate.
