Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GT 640 DDR3 vs GeForce GTX 980 Ti
IntroThe GeForce GT 640 DDR3 comes with core speeds of 900 MHz on the GPU, and 1782 MHz on the 2048 MB of DDR3 memory. It features 384 SPUs as well as 32 TAUs and 16 ROPs.Compare all that to the GeForce GTX 980 Ti, which comes with GPU clock speed of 1000 MHz, and 6144 MB of GDDR5 RAM running at 1750 MHz through a 384-bit bus. It also is comprised of 2816 Stream Processors, 176 Texture Address Units, and 96 Raster Operation Units.

3DMark Fire Strike Graphics Score
Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe GeForce GTX 980 Ti, in theory, should perform much faster than the GeForce GT 640 DDR3 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 980 Ti is much (more or less 511%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the GeForce GT 640 DDR3. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 980 Ti will be quite a bit (more or less 567%) more effective at AA than the GeForce GT 640 DDR3, and also capable of handling higher screen resolutions while still performing well. (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 max amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface in one second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the card's 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 per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the graphics card can possibly write to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
