GeForce GTX 285 1GB vs GeForce GTX 465
IntroThe GeForce GTX 285 1GB features a clock frequency of 648 MHz and a GDDR3 memory frequency of 1242 MHz. It also makes use of a 512-bit memory bus, and uses a 55 nm design. It is comprised of 240 SPUs, 80 TAUs, and 32 ROPs.Compare all that to the GeForce GTX 465, which has a clock speed of 607 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 802 MHz. It also features a 256-bit bus, and uses a 40 nm design. It is made up of 352 SPUs, 44 TAUs, and 32 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthPerformance-wise, the GeForce GTX 285 1GB should in theory be quite a bit superior to the GeForce GTX 465 in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 285 1GB is much (more or less 94%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX 465. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with a high screen resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 285 1GB is a better choice, but not by far. (explain)
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. Price Comparison

Display Specifications
Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of information (counted in MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface within a second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock 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 a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the video card could possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the card's 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 fill rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
