GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB vs GeForce GTX 750 Ti

Intro

Compare those specs to the GeForce GTX 750 Ti, which comes with clock speeds of 1020 MHz on the GPU, and 1350 MHz on the 2048 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 640 SPUs as well as 40 Texture Address Units and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GTX 750 Ti		60 Watts
GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB		110 Watts
	Difference: 50 Watts (83%)

Memory Bandwidth

Both cards have exactly the same bandwidth, so theoretically they should perform exactly the same. (explain)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB will be quite a bit (more or less 46%) faster with regards to anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX 750 Ti. (explain)

GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB		59392 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 750 Ti		40800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 18592 (46%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce GTX 750 Ti will be just a bit (approximately 10%) more effective at AA than the GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB, and also capable of handling higher screen resolutions more effectively. (explain)

GeForce GTX 750 Ti		16320 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB		14848 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 1472 (10%)

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: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in a second. It is calculated by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card 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 applied in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the graphics card can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs 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 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 reach the maximum fill rate.
