GeForce GTX 460		86400 MB/sec
	Difference: 44672 (52%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1650 will be a lot (about 120%) better at texture filtering than the GeForce GTX 460. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		83160 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 460		37800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 45360 (120%)

Pixel Rate

If using a high resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 1650 is the winner, by far. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		47520 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 460		16200 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 31320 (193%)

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 information (in units of MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in a second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher 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 number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card could possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the clock speed of the card. 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 - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
