VS

Radeon HD 6570 (OEM) 2GB vs Radeon R9 Nano

Intro

The Radeon HD 6570 (OEM) 2GB uses a 40 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 650 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM works at a frequency of 1000 MHz on this model. It features 480 SPUs along with 24 Texture Address Units and 8 ROPs.

Compare all of that to the Radeon R9 Nano, which has GPU clock speed of 1000 MHz, and 4096 MB of HBM RAM set to run at 500 MHz through a 4096-bit bus. It also is made up of 4096 Stream Processors, 256 TAUs, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of information (counted in MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in one second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the card's 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 are processed per second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core clock 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 in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the amount of colour 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 fill rate also depends on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
