GeForce GTX 660 Ti vs Radeon R7 370 4G

Intro

The GeForce GTX 660 Ti features a GPU core speed of 915 MHz, and the 2048 MB of GDDR5 RAM runs at 1500 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also features 1344 Stream Processors, 112 TAUs, and 24 ROPs.

Compare those specifications to the Radeon R7 370 4G, which comes with core speeds of 975 MHz on the GPU, and 1400 MHz on the 4096 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 1024 SPUs along with 64 TAUs and 32 Rasterization Operator Units.

GeForce GTX 660 Ti 144000 MB/sec
Difference: 35200 (24%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 660 Ti should be a lot (approximately 64%) better at texture filtering than the Radeon R7 370 4G. (explain)

GeForce GTX 660 Ti 102480 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R7 370 4G 62400 Mtexels/sec
Difference: 40080 (64%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon R7 370 4G is quite a bit (about 42%) faster with regards to full screen anti-aliasing than the GeForce GTX 660 Ti, and will be capable of handling higher resolutions without losing too much performance. (explain)

Radeon R7 370 4G 31200 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 660 Ti 21960 Mpixels/sec
Difference: 9240 (42%)

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.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (measured in MB per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster 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 number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
