GeForce GTX 570 vs GeForce GTX 660 Ti
Intro
The GeForce GTX 570 features a GPU core clock speed of 732 MHz, and the 1280 MB of GDDR5 memory is set to run at 950 MHz through a 320-bit bus. It also is made up of 480 Stream Processors, 60 Texture Address Units, and 40 ROPs.Compare those specs to the GeForce GTX 660 Ti, which features GPU clock speed of 915 MHz, and 2048 MB of GDDR5 RAM running at 1500 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also is made up of 1344 Stream Processors, 112 TAUs, and 24 Raster Operation Units.

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface in one second. The number is worked out by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions.
Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This figure 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 handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second.
Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units 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 output rate also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.

Guys, Im do 3D Rendering with CUDA GPGPU. I heard that GTX6** are bad for computing. I use mostly Blender Cycles or OctaneRender. I do play latest games too.How bad is the GTX660 vs GTX570. Please anyone. I have to buy either of the two
