Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB vs GeForce GTX 960
IntroThe GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB uses a 28 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core speed at 928 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM runs at a speed of 1350 MHz on this specific model. It features 768 SPUs as well as 64 Texture Address Units and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare all of that to the GeForce GTX 960, which has clock speeds of 1127 MHz on the GPU, and 1750 MHz on the 2048 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 1024 SPUs as well as 64 TAUs and 32 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthAs far as performance goes, the GeForce GTX 960 should theoretically be quite a bit superior to the GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 960 will be a lot (approximately 21%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 960 is a better choice, by far. (explain)
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. Price Comparison

Display Specifications
Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface in a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, 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 in one second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the video 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 card could possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the the core 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 rate also depends on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
