Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 1060 vs GeForce GTX 1060 3GB
IntroThe GeForce GTX 1060 makes use of a 16 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core frequency at 1506 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM runs at a frequency of 2000 MHz on this model. It features 1280 SPUs along with 80 TAUs and 48 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specifications to the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB, which comes with GPU clock speed of 1506 MHz, and 3072 MB of GDDR5 memory running at 2000 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also features 1152 SPUs, 72 Texture Address Units, and 48 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksBoth cards have the same power consumption.Memory BandwidthBoth cards have the exact same memory bandwidth, so theoretically they should have the same performance. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 1060 is a small bit (approximately 11%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB. (explain)
Pixel RateBoth cards have exactly the same pixel fill rate, so in theory they should perform equally good at at anti-aliasing, and be capable of handling the same screen resolutions. (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 max amount of information (in units of MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card could possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on quite a few 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.
