GeForce GTX 1050 vs GeForce GTX 1650

Intro

Compare that to the GeForce GTX 1650, which comes with a GPU core clock speed of 1485 MHz, and 4096 MB of GDDR5 RAM running at 2001 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also features 896 Stream Processors, 56 TAUs, and 32 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Both cards have the same power consumption.

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the GeForce GTX 1650 should be a little bit faster than the GeForce GTX 1050 in general. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		131072 MB/sec
GeForce GTX 1050		114688 MB/sec
	Difference: 16384 (14%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1650 will be a lot (approximately 54%) better at AF than the GeForce GTX 1050. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		83160 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 1050		54160 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 29000 (54%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1650 should be a small bit (about 10%) more effective at FSAA than the GeForce GTX 1050, and also able to handle higher screen resolutions without losing too much performance. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		47520 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 1050		43328 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 4192 (10%)

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: Memory bandwidth is the max amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, 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 maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
