Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon R9 390 8G vs Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary Edition
IntroThe Radeon R9 390 8G uses a 28 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 1000 MHz. The GDDR5 memory works at a speed of 1500 MHz on this specific model. It features 2560 SPUs along with 160 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specs to the Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary Edition, which comes with core speeds of 1680 MHz on the GPU, and 1750 MHz on the 8096 MB of GDDR6 RAM. It features 2560 SPUs as well as 160 TAUs and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthPerformance-wise, the Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary Edition should theoretically be a small bit superior to the Radeon R9 390 8G overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary Edition will be a lot (about 68%) better at texture filtering than the Radeon R9 390 8G. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary Edition is the winner, 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: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of information (measured in MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
