Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon RX 5600 vs Radeon RX 580
IntroThe Radeon RX 5600 comes with a GPU core clock speed of 1375 MHz, and the 6144 MB of GDDR6 RAM is set to run at 1500 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also features 2048 SPUs, 128 Texture Address Units, and 64 Raster Operation Units.Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 580, which has core speeds of 1257 MHz on the GPU, and 2000 MHz on the 8192 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 2304 SPUs as well as 144 Texture Address Units and 32 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the Radeon RX 5600 is 13% quicker than the Radeon RX 580 in general, due to its greater data rate. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 580 is a bit (about 3%) better at AF than the Radeon RX 5600. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon RX 5600 will be much (approximately 119%) more effective at anti-aliasing than the Radeon RX 580, and will be able to handle higher screen resolutions without losing too much performance. (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 maximum amount of information (in units of megabytes per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface within a second. It's calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the 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 could possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
