Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 960 vs Radeon HD 6770
IntroThe GeForce GTX 960 has a GPU core clock speed of 1127 MHz, and the 2048 MB of GDDR5 memory runs at 1750 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is comprised of 1024 SPUs, 64 TAUs, and 32 Raster Operation Units.Compare those specifications to the Radeon HD 6770, which has GPU core speed of 900 MHz, and 512 MB of GDDR5 RAM running at 1050 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is comprised of 800 Stream Processors, 40 Texture Address Units, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the GeForce GTX 960 should be quite a bit faster than the Radeon HD 6770 in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 960 should be much (more or less 100%) more effective at AF than the Radeon HD 6770. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using a high resolution 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: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of information (counted in MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip can possibly write 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 core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also 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, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
