GeForce GT 450 (OEM) vs GeForce GTX 650 Ti

Intro

The GeForce GT 450 (OEM) features a GPU core clock speed of 790 MHz, and the 1536 MB of GDDR5 memory is set to run at 1000 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also is comprised of 144 SPUs, 24 Texture Address Units, and 24 ROPs.

Compare all of that to the GeForce GTX 650 Ti, which comes with GPU core speed of 928 MHz, and 1024 MB of GDDR5 memory running at 1350 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also features 768 Stream Processors, 64 TAUs, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of information (counted in MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, 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 number 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 maximum number of pixels that the graphics card could possibly write to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
