Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce 8800 GTS (G92) vs Radeon HD 5750 512MB
IntroThe GeForce 8800 GTS (G92) features core speeds of 650 MHz on the GPU, and 970 MHz on the 512 MB of GDDR3 memory. It features 128 SPUs as well as 64 TAUs and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare all of that to the Radeon HD 5750 512MB, which features core clock speeds of 700 MHz on the GPU, and 1150 MHz on the 512 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 720(144x5) SPUs along with 36 TAUs and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically, the Radeon HD 5750 512MB should perform a small bit faster than the GeForce 8800 GTS (G92) in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce 8800 GTS (G92) is a lot (more or less 65%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon HD 5750 512MB. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon HD 5750 512MB should be a bit (approximately 8%) more effective at full screen anti-aliasing than the GeForce 8800 GTS (G92), and should 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: Bandwidth is the largest amount of information (in units of MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in one second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core 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 a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the video card can possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
