Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in a second. The number is calculated 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 it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions.
Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This number is calculated 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 graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in a second.
Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card can possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.

tengo una intel i5 8 gigas de ram ddr 3 un disco de 500 que tarjeta grafica le devo poner por favor que alguien me ayude mañana pienso comprarla asi kl me pueden ayudar cual es mejor la ati 6870 hd o la gtx 560
Omfg, 560 ti compete with 6950 u dumbnuts....
The gtx 560 is by much better that the amd 6870..
GTX560ti is newer and better than R6870. GeForce GTX 560 Ti, although more expensive is a faster graphics card. So go with the 560 ti if you're either going to play a lot of BF3, or want to future proof. Go with 6870 if neither of the above applies, or you just want to save money.
1U Rackmount LCD
uhm.. the GTX 560 TI is a lot more expensive than the 6870, its newer, and its also an upgraded version of the 560, so compare the 6870 and the 560 and the 6870 will win
hd6870 is better then the gtx560ti, they only need their drivers updated like nvidea...
(I got a single hd6870 in my system, runs bf3 on high settings and skyrim on ultra very nice... only with my 1920x1200 I need to set skyrim to high, and the fps drops sometimes then. I'm waiting on the new drivers!)
LOl!!! GTX 569ti is better than 6870 as nvidia always f**k ATI
I mean to say 560ti* is better than 6870
