With so much factors that go in determining the power of a graphs card like core clock, jet processors, memory clock speed how do you to compare them also for execution vs cost? One way to do this is by Conclusion the raw treatment power of a Chart by determination its COLLAPSES (floating operations per second).

  • Step 1

    Determine your price range and lucky find several graphs cards you're interested in buying.

  • Step 2

    Calculate the COLLAPSES of each one processor by to multiply the number of jet processors by the frequency of the core clock by the number of instructions a simple stream processor can handle per clock cycle. ATI charts can handle 2 instructions per clock cycle Considering that Nvidia charts can handle 3. Your equation look something like this:
    ATI: # of SP x SP Clock Speed x 2 = FLOPS
    Nvidia: # of SP x SP Clock Speed x 3 = FLOPS

  • Step 3

    Once you've found the COLLAPSES of each one card you can put the results in a count and lucky find the cost per collapse by division the price by number of FLOPS. This can service as a good base line to which you can to compare other factors such as memory speed and cut as well as DirectX level among other features.
