Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce 9500 GT DDR2 vs Radeon HD 5450
IntroThe GeForce 9500 GT DDR2 comes with a clock speed of 550 MHz and a DDR2 memory speed of 500 MHz. It also uses a 128-bit bus, and makes use of a 65 nm design. It features 32 SPUs, 16 TAUs, and 8 ROPs.Compare all of that to the Radeon HD 5450, which has a clock speed of 650 MHz and a DDR3 memory speed of 800 MHz. It also features a 64-bit memory bus, and uses a 40 nm design. It is made up of 80(16x5) SPUs, 8 Texture Address Units, and 4 ROPs.
Display Graphs
Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the GeForce 9500 GT DDR2 should be 25% quicker than the Radeon HD 5450 overall, because of its higher data rate. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce 9500 GT DDR2 is quite a bit (more or less 69%) better at texture filtering than the Radeon HD 5450. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce 9500 GT DDR2 is a better choice, by a large margin. (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 largest amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics 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 maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.

4 Responses to “GeForce 9500 GT DDR2 vs Radeon HD 5450”geforce 9500 gt is better than hd 5450. go for 9500 gt
ATI RADEON BEM MELHOR AGUENTA BELO OVERCLOCK RODEI CALL OF DUTY MW3 TUDO HIGH+EXTRA COM RESOLUÇAO DE 1280X720 30 FPS DE BOA COM OVERCLOCK DE 700 MHZ GPU E MEMORIA 531 MHZ DDR2 !!!!
ofcourse shubh is right. ive tested both of em in my pc.
what i found is 9500 is 70% better than 5450
In a machine with only PCI slots, these two were the top dogs for a long time. The GT520/610 cards that Zotac released in PCI after these two have only managed to knock off the HD5450 for the number two spot. 9500GT is still faster. It might be another generation or two, if ever, before someone releases a PCI card with both more features and more speed than 9500GT.
