Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 1050 Ti vs GeForce GTX 580
IntroThe GeForce GTX 1050 Ti comes with a GPU core speed of 1290 MHz, and the 4096 MB of GDDR5 memory runs at 1750 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is made up of 768 SPUs, 48 Texture Address Units, and 32 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the GeForce GTX 580, which has clock speeds of 772 MHz on the GPU, and 1002 MHz on the 1536 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 512 SPUs along with 64 TAUs and 48 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe GeForce GTX 580, in theory, should be a lot faster than the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is much (more or less 25%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX 580. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is a little bit (more or less 11%) more effective at AA than the GeForce GTX 580, and capable of handling higher screen resolutions more effectively. (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 data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface within a second. It's worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the video card could possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as 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, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
