Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 1660 Ti vs GeForce GTX 560
IntroThe GeForce GTX 1660 Ti features a GPU clock speed of 1500 MHz, and the 6144 MB of GDDR6 memory runs at 1500 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also is made up of 1536 Stream Processors, 96 TAUs, and 48 Raster Operation Units.Compare those specs to the GeForce GTX 560, which has clock speeds of 810 MHz on the GPU, and 1001 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 336 SPUs along with 56 Texture Address Units and 32 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti should perform a lot faster than the GeForce GTX 560 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 1660 Ti should be much (more or less 217%) more effective at texture filtering than the GeForce GTX 560. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 1660 Ti should be quite a bit (approximately 178%) better at FSAA than the GeForce GTX 560, and should be able to handle higher resolutions more effectively. (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

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the interface 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 ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This is worked out 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 video card will be at 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 chip could possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
