GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 1GB vs GeForce GTX 1650

Intro

Compare those specifications to the GeForce GTX 1650, which has core speeds of 1485 MHz on the GPU, and 2001 MHz on the 4096 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 896 SPUs as well as 56 Texture Address Units and 32 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 1GB		70 Watts
GeForce GTX 1650		75 Watts
	Difference: 5 Watts (7%)

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the GeForce GTX 1650 should be 141% faster than the GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 1GB overall, due to its greater bandwidth. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		131072 MB/sec
GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 1GB		54400 MB/sec
	Difference: 76672 (141%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1650 should be a lot (more or less 373%) more effective at AF than the GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 1GB. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		83160 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 1GB		17600 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 65560 (373%)

Pixel Rate

If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 1650 is a better choice, by a large margin. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		47520 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 1GB		4400 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 43120 (980%)

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 largest amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better 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 number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card can possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
