GeForce GTX 1650 vs GeForce GTX 560

Intro

Compare those specs to the GeForce GTX 560, which features GPU core speed of 810 MHz, and 1024 MB of GDDR5 memory set to run at 1001 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also features 336 Stream Processors, 56 TAUs, and 32 ROPs.

GeForce GTX 560		128128 MB/sec
	Difference: 2944 (2%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1650 will be quite a bit (approximately 83%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX 560. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		83160 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 560		45360 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 37800 (83%)

Pixel Rate

If using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 1650 is superior to the GeForce GTX 560, by a large margin. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		47520 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 560		25920 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 21600 (83%)

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.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR type memory, it 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card can possibly write to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of ROPs by the clock speed of the card. 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 output rate also depends on many 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.
