Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 650 Ti vs Radeon HD 4830 512MB
IntroThe GeForce GTX 650 Ti has core speeds of 928 MHz on the GPU, and 1350 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 768 SPUs as well as 64 Texture Address Units and 16 ROPs.Compare that to the Radeon HD 4830 512MB, which makes use of a 55 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 575 MHz. The GDDR3 RAM is set to run at a frequency of 900 MHz on this specific model. It features 640(128x5) SPUs along with 32 TAUs and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the GeForce GTX 650 Ti should be quite a bit faster than the Radeon HD 4830 512MB overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 650 Ti is a lot (about 223%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon HD 4830 512MB. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 650 Ti will be quite a bit (about 61%) more effective at anti-aliasing than the Radeon HD 4830 512MB, and also capable of handling 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 maximum amount of data (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface within a second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the clock 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 rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
