GeForce 8800 GTS (G92) vs GeForce GTX 750

Intro

Compare that to the GeForce GTX 750, which features core speeds of 1020 MHz on the GPU, and 1250 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 512 SPUs as well as 32 TAUs and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GTX 750		55 Watts
GeForce 8800 GTS (G92)		135 Watts
	Difference: 80 Watts (145%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the GeForce GTX 750 is 29% faster than the GeForce 8800 GTS (G92) overall, because of its greater data rate. (explain)

GeForce GTX 750		80000 MB/sec
GeForce 8800 GTS (G92)		62080 MB/sec
	Difference: 17920 (29%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce 8800 GTS (G92) is quite a bit (approximately 27%) more effective at AF than the GeForce GTX 750. (explain)

GeForce 8800 GTS (G92)		41600 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 750		32640 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 8960 (27%)

Pixel Rate

If running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 750 is superior to the GeForce 8800 GTS (G92), by a large margin. (explain)

GeForce GTX 750		16320 Mpixels/sec
GeForce 8800 GTS (G92)		10400 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 5920 (57%)

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.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. 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 bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core clock 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 per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the core 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 output 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 reach the max fill rate.
