Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce 9500 GT 1GB GDDR3 vs Radeon HD 4670 512MB
IntroThe GeForce 9500 GT 1GB GDDR3 has a clock speed of 550 MHz and a GDDR3 memory frequency of 800 MHz. It also features a 128-bit memory bus, and uses a 55 nm design. It features 32 SPUs, 16 TAUs, and 8 ROPs.Compare those specs to the Radeon HD 4670 512MB, which uses a 55 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 750 MHz. The GDDR4/GDDR3/DDR3/DDR2 memory works at a frequency of 1000 MHz on this specific card. It features 320(64x5) SPUs along with 32 Texture Address Units and 8 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe Radeon HD 4670 512MB should theoretically perform a lot faster than the GeForce 9500 GT 1GB GDDR3 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon HD 4670 512MB is much (more or less 173%) better at texture filtering than the GeForce 9500 GT 1GB GDDR3. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using a high screen resolution is important to you, then the Radeon HD 4670 512MB is a better choice, 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: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface in one second. The number is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units 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 processed in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the graphics card can possibly write to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the clock speed of the card. 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 is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
