Compare any two graphics cards:
Geforce GTX 770 vs Radeon HD 7970
IntroThe Geforce GTX 770 comes with a GPU core speed of 1046 MHz, and the 2048 MB of GDDR5 RAM is set to run at 1753 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also is made up of 1536 SPUs, 128 Texture Address Units, and 32 Raster Operation Units.Compare those specifications to the Radeon HD 7970, which has a core clock speed of 925 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 1375 MHz. It also uses a 384-bit bus, and makes use of a 28 nm design. It is made up of 2048 SPUs, 128 Texture Address Units, and 32 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthPerformance-wise, the Radeon HD 7970 should in theory be just a bit superior to the Geforce GTX 770 in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe Geforce GTX 770 will be a small bit (more or less 13%) faster with regards to AF than the Radeon HD 7970. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Geforce GTX 770 should be a small bit (more or less 13%) better at full screen anti-aliasing than the Radeon HD 7970, and also able to handle 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 max amount of information (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in one second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster 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 texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the graphics card can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number 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 outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.

5 Responses to “Geforce GTX 770 vs Radeon HD 7970”which card is better a msi r7970 lightning or evga 770 titan cooled ?
becouse i have a r7970 lightning.. :S
Depends, For video editing yes for most games, No. AMD Cards are better for Video editing and better at some games but Nividia is better for gaming, especially on the really popular games, BF3,Far Cry 3 ect... Those cards are pretty close though. The Asus 7970 ROG Matrix is better than the Lightning because of it's better cooling and heat dissipation. The 7970 ROG Matrix is also clocked to 316 GB/s and is much quieter and cooler than reference and lightning 7970's.
Add GHZ edition please

The Core Speed and Pixel Rate is wrong about 7970, fix this!
