GeForce GTX 560 Ti vs Radeon HD 7770

Intro

The GeForce GTX 560 Ti makes use of a 40 nm design. nVidia has set the core speed at 822 MHz. The GDDR5 memory runs at a speed of 1002 MHz on this particular model. It features 384 SPUs along with 64 Texture Address Units and 32 Rasterization Operator Units.

Compare that to the Radeon HD 7770, which features core speeds of 1000 MHz on the GPU, and 1125 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 640 SPUs along with 40 TAUs and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon HD 7770 80 Watts
GeForce GTX 560 Ti 170 Watts
Difference: 90 Watts (113%)

Memory Bandwidth

The GeForce GTX 560 Ti should theoretically perform quite a bit faster than the Radeon HD 7770 in general. (explain)

GeForce GTX 560 Ti 128256 MB/sec
Radeon HD 7770 72000 MB/sec
Difference: 56256 (78%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 560 Ti is much (about 32%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon HD 7770. (explain)

GeForce GTX 560 Ti 52608 Mtexels/sec
Radeon HD 7770 40000 Mtexels/sec
Difference: 12608 (32%)

Pixel Rate

If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 560 Ti is a better choice, by far. (explain)

GeForce GTX 560 Ti 26304 Mpixels/sec
Radeon HD 7770 16000 Mpixels/sec
Difference: 10304 (64%)

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.

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the largest amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in one second. It's calculated by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, 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 in one second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
