Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon R9 390 8G vs Radeon RX 5700
IntroThe Radeon R9 390 8G features clock speeds of 1000 MHz on the GPU, and 1500 MHz on the 8192 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 2560 SPUs along with 160 TAUs and 64 ROPs.Compare those specs to the Radeon RX 5700, which has GPU clock speed of 1465 MHz, and 8096 MB of GDDR6 RAM running at 1750 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also is comprised of 2304 SPUs, 144 TAUs, and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe Radeon RX 5700 should in theory be a little bit faster than the Radeon R9 390 8G overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 5700 will be a lot (more or less 32%) better at AF than the Radeon R9 390 8G. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using a high resolution is important to you, then the Radeon RX 5700 is superior to the Radeon R9 390 8G, and very much so. (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: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
