GeForce GT 340 1GB vs GeForce GTX 1650

Intro

Compare all that 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 ROPs.

GeForce GT 340 1GB		69 Watts
GeForce GTX 1650		75 Watts
	Difference: 6 Watts (9%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the GeForce GTX 1650 should be 141% faster than the GeForce GT 340 1GB overall, due to its greater data rate. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		131072 MB/sec
GeForce GT 340 1GB		54400 MB/sec
	Difference: 76672 (141%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1650 is much (about 373%) more effective at AF than the GeForce GT 340 1GB. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		83160 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GT 340 1GB		17600 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 65560 (373%)

Pixel Rate

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

GeForce GTX 1650		47520 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GT 340 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 max amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics 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 number of pixels the graphics card could possibly write to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
