Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum 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 card's interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If 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 number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in a second.
Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that 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 the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.

5 Responses to “GeForce GTX 580 vs Geforce GTX 760”i think 580 is the best card.
Gtx 580 doesn't stand a chance with Gtx 760...it only surpass gtx 760 a little bit of percent...
580 is beast who needs an expensive 7 series when u can go on cl and get a 580 for 50$
exactly james..
Lol the gtx 580 kills the gtx 760 all day!!!.just because a newer gpu has more Cuda cores or better specs don't mean it's a faster or better gpu at all.gtx 760 runs cooler and less power is all gtx 580 much better gpu.
