Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GT 450 (OEM) vs Radeon RX 560
IntroThe GeForce GT 450 (OEM) uses a 40 nm design. nVidia has set the core frequency at 790 MHz. The GDDR5 memory is set to run at a speed of 1000 MHz on this particular model. It features 144 SPUs as well as 24 TAUs and 24 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specs to the Radeon RX 560, which features a clock frequency of 1175 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1750 MHz. It also makes use of a 128-bit bus, and uses a 14 nm design. It features 1024 SPUs, 64 Texture Address Units, and 16 ROPs.
Display Graphs
Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the Radeon RX 560 will be 19% quicker than the GeForce GT 450 (OEM) overall, because of its greater bandwidth. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 560 should be much (more or less 297%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the GeForce GT 450 (OEM). (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the GeForce GT 450 (OEM) is superior to the Radeon RX 560, but it probably won't make a huge difference. (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 max amount of information (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better 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 can be processed in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card could possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
