GeForce GTX 1050 Ti vs GeForce GTX 1630

Intro

Compare those specs to the GeForce GTX 1630, which uses a 12 nm design. nVidia has set the core speed at 1740 MHz. The GDDR6 memory runs at a frequency of 1500 MHz on this card. It features 512 SPUs along with 32 Texture Address Units and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Both cards have the same power consumption.

Memory Bandwidth

As far as performance goes, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti should in theory be a small bit superior to the GeForce GTX 1630 in general. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1050 Ti		114688 MB/sec
GeForce GTX 1630		98304 MB/sec
	Difference: 16384 (17%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti should be a bit (more or less 11%) more effective at AF than the GeForce GTX 1630. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1050 Ti		61920 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 1630		55680 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 6240 (11%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is quite a bit (more or less 48%) faster with regards to full screen anti-aliasing than the GeForce GTX 1630, and should be able to handle higher resolutions without losing too much performance. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1050 Ti		41280 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 1630		27840 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 13440 (48%)

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 transferred over the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core 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 in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines 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 lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
