GeForce GTX 465 vs Radeon RX 560

Intro

The GeForce GTX 465 uses a 40 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core speed at 607 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM is set to run at a frequency of 802 MHz on this model. It features 352 SPUs as well as 44 TAUs and 32 ROPs.

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 560, which features a core clock frequency of 1175 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 1750 MHz. It also features a 128-bit bus, and uses a 14 nm design. It is made up of 1024 SPUs, 64 TAUs, and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 560 80 Watts
GeForce GTX 465 200 Watts
Difference: 120 Watts (150%)

Memory Bandwidth

As far as performance goes, the Radeon RX 560 should theoretically be a little bit superior to the GeForce GTX 465 in general. (explain)

Radeon RX 560 114688 MB/sec
GeForce GTX 465 102592 MB/sec
Difference: 12096 (12%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 560 will be quite a bit (more or less 182%) more effective at texture filtering than the GeForce GTX 465. (explain)

Radeon RX 560 75200 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 465 26708 Mtexels/sec
Difference: 48492 (182%)

Pixel Rate

If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 465 is the winner, but it probably won't make a huge difference. (explain)

GeForce GTX 465 19424 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 560 18800 Mpixels/sec
Difference: 624 (3%)

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: Bandwidth is the max amount of information (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that are processed in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the video card could possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
