GeForce GTX 560 vs Radeon HD 6850
Intro
The GeForce GTX 560 comes with a GPU clock speed of 810 MHz, and the 1024 MB of GDDR5 RAM is set to run at 1001 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also is comprised of 336 Stream Processors, 56 Texture Address Units, and 32 ROPs.Compare all that to the Radeon HD 6850, which comes with GPU clock speed of 775 MHz, and 1024 MB of GDDR5 memory running at 1000 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also is made up of 960 Stream Processors, 48 TAUs, and 32 Raster Operation Units.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in one second. The number is worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.
Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the video card will be at handling 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 that the graphics chip can possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the the core 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 - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.

Radeon is much..much better..dx
rasta dumm? oder so mann siehts eindeutig das die 560 besser ist TAUSEND MAL BESSER bei alles
Bruder95 auch dumm? Dafür das die Radeon nur die hälfte kostet, ist sie Leistungstechnisch fast genau so gut. die paar texel und pixel machen minimal etwas aus. bei Spielen wie BF3 wird man den Unterschied etwas merken.
HOW THE f**K U CAME UP WITH THE IDEA THAT RANDON 6850 IS BETTER THEN 560GTX CAN4T U SEE THE BOARD
sex is good for anus
6850 core speed is infact higher than 775 usually depending on the brand is 790-820
