GeForce GTX 1660 Ti vs Geforce GTX 760

Intro

Compare all that to the Geforce GTX 760, which comes with GPU core speed of 980 MHz, and 2048 MB of GDDR5 memory running at 1502 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also features 1152 SPUs, 96 TAUs, and 32 Raster Operation Units.

Geforce GTX 760		94080 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 49920 (53%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1660 Ti should be quite a bit (about 130%) better at full screen anti-aliasing than the Geforce GTX 760, and also should be able to handle higher screen resolutions better. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1660 Ti		72000 Mpixels/sec
Geforce GTX 760		31360 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 40640 (130%)

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.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface in one second. The number is calculated by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card can possibly write to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units 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 rate also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
