Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon R9 390X 8G vs Radeon RX Vega 56
IntroThe Radeon R9 390X 8G comes with a clock frequency of 1050 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1500 MHz. It also features a 512-bit memory bus, and uses a 28 nm design. It is made up of 2816 SPUs, 176 TAUs, and 64 ROPs.Compare those specs to the Radeon RX Vega 56, which has clock speeds of 1156 MHz on the GPU, and 1600 MHz on the 8192 MB of HBM2 RAM. It features 3584 SPUs as well as 224 Texture Address Units and 64 ROPs.

3DMark Fire Strike Graphics Score
Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthIn theory, the Radeon RX Vega 56 should be 9% quicker than the Radeon R9 390X 8G in general, because of its greater bandwidth. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX Vega 56 is quite a bit (about 40%) better at texture filtering than the Radeon R9 390X 8G. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon RX Vega 56 is just a bit (approximately 10%) faster with regards to anti-aliasing than the Radeon R9 390X 8G, and will be able to handle higher screen resolutions while still performing well. (explain)
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. Price Comparison

Display Specifications
Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the max amount of data (measured in MB per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are processed in one second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics card can possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate also depends on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
