    GTX 650ti is better than hd 6870 ?

    Im confused, 6870 is alot faster card than gtx 650ti, to prove : http://www.hwcompare.com/13512/geforce-gtx-650-vs-radeon-hd-6870/
    But benchmarks show for 650ti 2,719 points
    while the hd 6870 gets 2,533 points
    Its not logical, please reply

    I think you are getting confused between the GTX 650 and the GTX 650 ti.

    The 'ti' variant is a significantly faster card.

    Plus the hwcompare site has done zero benchmarking, they are just listing a some of the specs.

      Thank you, and David for fast reply.
      Indeed I made mistake, but I'm still not sure
      In my country both video cards are for
      the same price and I don't know which should i choose (power isn't a problem)
      the biggest problem is gtx 650 ti low bandwidth
      And I'm planning to play games in the future
      So should i choose a little bit slower but with
      bigger bandwidth or faster but a lot smaller bandwidth
      card? I was looking at the 7850 but it cost in my country alot(300£) I think,
      and there is a lot problems with shipping, and so I stuck with these two 6870 and gtx 650 ti
      (for gaming)

        They are fairly close in performance.
        You probably wouldn't notice a great deal of difference in most games.

        If there is one particular game you like a lot, then you should look up benchmarks for that particular game with these cards.
