GeForce GTX 260 vs GeForce GTX 750 Ti

Intro

The GeForce GTX 260 features core speeds of 576 MHz on the GPU, and 999 MHz on the 896 MB of GDDR3 RAM. It features 192 SPUs along with 64 Texture Address Units and 28 ROPs.

Compare those specifications 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 along with 40 TAUs and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GTX 750 Ti 60 Watts
GeForce GTX 260 182 Watts
Difference: 122 Watts (203%)

Memory Bandwidth

The GeForce GTX 260, in theory, should be quite a bit faster than the GeForce GTX 750 Ti in general. (explain)

GeForce GTX 260 111888 MB/sec
GeForce GTX 750 Ti 86400 MB/sec
Difference: 25488 (30%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 750 Ti is a little bit (about 11%) more effective at texture filtering than the GeForce GTX 260. (explain)

GeForce GTX 750 Ti 40800 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 260 36864 Mtexels/sec
Difference: 3936 (11%)

Pixel Rate

If using a high screen resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 750 Ti is the winner, but it probably won't make a huge difference. (explain)

GeForce GTX 750 Ti 16320 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 260 16128 Mpixels/sec
Difference: 192 (1%)

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.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred over 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 memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied 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 video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. 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 many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.

I dont think this is an accurate comparison. For one the 750Ti outside of its 128 memory bus is supposed to be on par with the GTX 480. this statement ahs ben made by several review sites that tested the 750 Ti. so if its on par with the 480 then why does this test show it being barely stronger than a gtx 260 vanilla?

Nate says:

That is because this isn't a test but merely a theoretical comparison based on specifications of each cards. All they are doing is crunching the numbers to see what theoretical performance should be. It is not 100% accurate to real world performance, and accuracy is worse the bigger the time gap in the comparison (eg - this is a 6 year gap).

As the site says, "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."
