GeForce GTX 560 Ti vs Radeon HD 5770

Intro

The GeForce GTX 560 Ti makes use of a 40 nm design. nVidia has set the core frequency at 822 MHz. The GDDR5 memory works at a frequency of 1002 MHz on this specific card. It features 384 SPUs along with 64 Texture Address Units and 32 ROPs.

Compare all of that to the Radeon HD 5770, which has core clock speeds of 850 MHz on the GPU, and 1200 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 800(160x5) SPUs as well as 40 TAUs and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of information (in units of megabytes per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster 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 number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics card can possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.

[...] Third argument is upgradability. Go google “iMac”. Look at it. It’s a giant white square pancake with a keyboard and a mouse with one button connected to it. It’s like a laptop: not very powerful and annoying to upgrade. Notice I said “annoying” and not impossible. Upgrading RAM is just finding compatible RAM and slotting it in which I think means the Apple store or Apple suppliers only. Not much room for fans there either. I went to the electronics store here the other day and touched the back of the screen of an iMac that had been on all day… it literally burnt my fingers. You could look into the Mac Pro, the tower Mac but they range in price from $2.5k- $5k (AU$3k-$6k). Here I’d like to point out that for AU$3400 (comparing to the AU$6k Mac Pro), you can get the NRG Avalanche that has half the cores (6 cores @ 3.9Ghz that have been overclocked to 4.5Ghz), twice as much hard drive space (plus a 120GB SSD), 10GB more RAM, and a slightly more powerful graphics card.
