Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 vs GeForce GTX 960
IntroThe GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 makes use of a 40 nm design. nVidia has set the core speed at 732 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM runs at a speed of 900 MHz on this model. It features 448 SPUs as well as 56 TAUs and 40 ROPs.Compare all that to the GeForce GTX 960, which has GPU core speed of 1127 MHz, and 2048 MB of GDDR5 memory running at 1750 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is comprised of 1024 Stream Processors, 64 TAUs, and 32 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 should theoretically perform a lot faster than the GeForce GTX 960 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 960 is quite a bit (approximately 76%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 960 is the winner, 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: Bandwidth is the largest amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR type memory, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the video card could possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
