GeForce 9800 GT 1GB vs Radeon HD 5670
Intro
The GeForce 9800 GT 1GB has a clock speed of 600 MHz and a GDDR3 memory frequency of 900 MHz. It also uses a 256-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 65/55 nm design. It is made up of 112 SPUs, 56 TAUs, and 16 ROPs.Compare those specs to the Radeon HD 5670, which features GPU clock speed of 775 MHz, and 1024 MB of GDDR5 RAM running at 1000 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also features 400(80x5) SPUs, 20 Texture Address Units, and 8 ROPs.

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the largest amount of information (measured in MB per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, 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 number is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second.
Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card can possibly write to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.

Radeon > GeForce
RADEON 5760 IS JST A BIT SLOWER THAN
9800 GT MAY BE THE DIFFERENCE OG 4-5 FPS IN MOST OF THE GAMES
olha ah hd 5670 da pra usa numa fonte generica de 500 watts mais ela é uma placa muito boa vale a pena ter uma dessa vou pegar por 170 R$
