GeForce 9800 GT 512MB vs GeForce GTX 750
Intro
The GeForce 9800 GT 512MB comes with a GPU core clock speed of 600 MHz, and the 512 MB of GDDR3 memory runs at 900 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also features 112 Stream Processors, 56 TAUs, and 16 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the GeForce GTX 750, which features core clock speeds of 1020 MHz on the GPU, and 1250 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 512 SPUs along with 32 TAUs and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the largest amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions.
Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core clock 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 processed in a second.
Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the video card could possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.

Comments
One Response to “GeForce 9800 GT 512MB vs GeForce GTX 750”i am going to upgrade from the 9800 GT 512M from XFX (their wierd version that somehow runs without a power connector yet its the regular version rather than the green edition) to an EVGA GTX 750 FTW edition w/ACX cooling. All I can find about it other than newegg is reviews and unboxing etc. for the 750 ti version. maybe since its exclusive to newegg and requires more than zero effort to find, noone else has bought it yet? its on sale for $99.99, so that's why I got it instead of one of the more "regular" GTX 750's (the shorter ones w/out the 6-pin input). Will make unboxing videoas soon as it arrives on the 23rd of the month/year this comment was typed in (December 2014). I seriously hope it includes a molex to 6-pin adapter, my POS dell PSU only has a single 4-pin connector.
