Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 1660 Ti vs Radeon HD 7790
IntroThe GeForce GTX 1660 Ti makes use of a 12 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core speed at 1500 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM is set to run at a frequency of 1500 MHz on this specific model. It features 1536 SPUs as well as 96 Texture Address Units and 48 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specifications to the Radeon HD 7790, which makes use of a 28 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 1000 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM runs at a speed of 1500 MHz on this particular card. It features 896 SPUs along with 56 Texture Address Units and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe GeForce GTX 1660 Ti should in theory perform much faster than the Radeon HD 7790 in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 1660 Ti will be a lot (more or less 157%) faster with regards to AF than the Radeon HD 7790. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 1660 Ti is quite a bit (more or less 350%) more effective at anti-aliasing than the Radeon HD 7790, and will be 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 information (measured in MB per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics card can possibly write to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
