GeForce GTX 650 Ti vs Radeon HD 7850
Intro
The GeForce GTX 650 Ti comes with a GPU core clock speed of 928 MHz, and the 1024 MB of GDDR5 RAM runs at 1350 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also features 768 SPUs, 64 TAUs, and 16 Raster Operation Units.Compare those specifications to the Radeon HD 7850, which has a core clock speed of 860 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1200 MHz. It also uses a 256-bit memory bus, and uses a 28 nm design. It is made up of 1024 SPUs, 64 TAUs, and 32 ROPs.

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface in a second. It is worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions.
Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are processed in one second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in a second.
Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card could possibly write to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. 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.

Comments
One Response to “GeForce GTX 650 Ti vs Radeon HD 7850”I would like to see Game bench results. The 650Ti is one of those cards that is overlooked. Many do not realize just how good a card it is. I had a 5870 in my i5 that the fan went out on. When I purchased the 650Ti (91$ Bucks)I thought it would be a little less or the same in performance as the 5870. But it does so much better than the 5870 on my i5. I would say it will beat the 7850 too.
