GeForce GTX 1650 vs Radeon HD 5830

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon HD 5830, which has a core clock speed of 800 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1000 MHz. It also makes use of a 256-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 40 nm design. It is made up of 1120(224x5) SPUs, 56 Texture Address Units, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GTX 1650		75 Watts
Radeon HD 5830		175 Watts
	Difference: 100 Watts (133%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically, the GeForce GTX 1650 should perform a small bit faster than the Radeon HD 5830 in general. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		131072 MB/sec
Radeon HD 5830		128000 MB/sec
	Difference: 3072 (2%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1650 should be a lot (about 86%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon HD 5830. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		83160 Mtexels/sec
Radeon HD 5830		44800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 38360 (86%)

Pixel Rate

If running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 1650 is superior to the Radeon HD 5830, and very much so. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		47520 Mpixels/sec
Radeon HD 5830		12800 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 34720 (271%)

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.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed in one second. This is worked out by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core 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 processed in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs 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 rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
