In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 Ti Gigabyte OC 1GB Edition are massively better than the AMD Radeon HD 5670 Sapphire 1GB GDDR5.
The GTX 560 Ti has a 125 MHz higher core clock speed and 44 more Texture Mapping Units than the HD 5670. This results in the GTX 560 Ti providing 42.1 GTexel/s better texturing performance. This still holds weight but shader performance is generally more relevant, particularly since both of these GPUs support at least DirectX 10.
The GTX 560 Ti has a 125 MHz higher core clock speed and 24 more Render Output Units than the HD 5670. This results in the GTX 560 Ti providing 22.6 GPixel/s better pixeling performance. However, both GPUs support DirectX 9 or above, and pixeling performance is only really relevant when comparing older cards.
The GTX 560 Ti was released over a year more recently than the HD 5670, and so the GTX 560 Ti is likely to have better driver support, meaning it will be more optimized for running the latest games when compared to the HD 5670.
The Radeon HD 5670 Sapphire 1GB GDDR5 and the GeForce GTX 560 Ti Gigabyte OC 1GB Edition have the same amount of video memory, but are likely to provide slightly different experiences when displaying game textures at high resolutions.
The GTX 560 Ti has 64 GB/sec greater memory bandwidth than the HD 5670, which means that the memory performance of the GTX 560 Ti is much better than the HD 5670.
The Radeon HD 5670 Sapphire 1GB GDDR5 has 400 Shader Processing Units and the GeForce GTX 560 Ti Gigabyte OC 1GB Edition has 384. However, the actual shader performance of the HD 5670 is 155 and the actual shader performance of the GTX 560 Ti is 691. The GTX 560 Ti having 536 better shader performance and an altogether better performance when taking into account other relevant data means that the GTX 560 Ti delivers a massively smoother and more efficient experience when processing graphical data than the HD 5670.
We would recommend a PSU with at least 400 Watts for the HD 5670.
