Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 570 vs GeForce GTX 580
IntroThe GeForce GTX 570 comes with a GPU core clock speed of 732 MHz, and the 1280 MB of GDDR5 RAM is set to run at 950 MHz through a 320-bit bus. It also is made up of 480 SPUs, 60 Texture Address Units, and 40 Raster Operation Units.Compare that to the GeForce GTX 580, which features GPU clock speed of 772 MHz, and 1536 MB of GDDR5 memory set to run at 1002 MHz through a 384-bit bus. It also features 512 SPUs, 64 TAUs, and 48 Raster Operation Units.

3DMark Fire Strike Graphics Score
Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the GeForce GTX 580 should be much faster than the GeForce GTX 570 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 580 will be a little bit (approximately 12%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX 570. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with a high screen resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 580 is superior to the GeForce GTX 570, by a large margin. (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 largest amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in one second. The number is worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the bandwidth is, the better 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 are applied per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the graphics card could possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.

[...] Ich finde diese Seite recht interessant: GeForce GTX 570 vs GeForce GTX 580 – Performance Comparison Benchmarks @ Hardware Compare Inwiefern sie stimmt kann ich nicht sagen. Die Ergebnisse treffen aber meistens recht genau zu. [...]
What about the 570s with 2560MB? Wouldn't that outperform the 580?
ye where is the 2 gig Gtx 570 Ti
