Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 1070 vs GeForce GTX 960
IntroThe GeForce GTX 1070 features a core clock frequency of 1506 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 2000 MHz. It also features a 256-bit memory bus, and uses a 16 nm design. It features 1920 SPUs, 120 Texture Address Units, and 64 ROPs.Compare all of that to the GeForce GTX 960, which features a GPU core clock speed of 1127 MHz, and 2048 MB of GDDR5 memory set to run at 1750 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is made up of 1024 Stream Processors, 64 TAUs, and 32 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthIn theory, the GeForce GTX 1070 will be 134% faster than the GeForce GTX 960 overall, due to its greater bandwidth. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 1070 is a lot (approximately 151%) more effective at texture filtering than the GeForce GTX 960. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with a high screen resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 1070 is superior to the GeForce GTX 960, and very much so. (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 (in units of megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster 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 processed per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip could possibly write to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the clock 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 is also dependant on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
