Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 vs Radeon HD 6750 1GB
IntroThe GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 features a GPU core clock speed of 550 MHz, and the 512 MB of GDDR5 memory runs at 850 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also features 96 Stream Processors, 32 Texture Address Units, and 8 Raster Operation Units.Compare all that to the Radeon HD 6750 1GB, which makes use of a 40 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 725 MHz. The GDDR5 memory works at a speed of 1000 MHz on this particular model. It features 720 SPUs as well as 36 Texture Address Units and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthPerformance-wise, the Radeon HD 6750 1GB should theoretically be a little bit superior to the GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon HD 6750 1GB is much (approximately 48%) more effective at texture filtering than the GeForce GT 240 GDDR5. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon HD 6750 1GB should be much (approximately 164%) more effective at FSAA than the GeForce GT 240 GDDR5, and also 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: Bandwidth is the largest amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in a second. It is calculated by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher 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 maximum number of pixels the video card can possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
