Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce 9500 GT DDR2 vs Radeon HD 5450
IntroThe GeForce 9500 GT DDR2 has a GPU core speed of 550 MHz, and the 256 MB of DDR2 memory runs at 500 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is made up of 32 Stream Processors, 16 Texture Address Units, and 8 Raster Operation Units.Compare those specs to the Radeon HD 5450, which uses a 40 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 650 MHz. The DDR3 memory works at a speed of 800 MHz on this card. It features 80(16x5) SPUs along with 8 Texture Address Units and 4 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically, the GeForce 9500 GT DDR2 should be much faster than the Radeon HD 5450 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce 9500 GT DDR2 is much (approximately 69%) more effective at AF than the Radeon HD 5450. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce 9500 GT DDR2 is much (approximately 69%) faster with regards to full screen anti-aliasing than the Radeon HD 5450, and will be able to handle higher resolutions while still performing well. (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 (in units of MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface in one second. It's calculated by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are processed 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 graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number 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 also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.

4 Responses to “GeForce 9500 GT DDR2 vs Radeon HD 5450”geforce 9500 gt is better than hd 5450. go for 9500 gt
ATI RADEON BEM MELHOR AGUENTA BELO OVERCLOCK RODEI CALL OF DUTY MW3 TUDO HIGH+EXTRA COM RESOLUÇAO DE 1280X720 30 FPS DE BOA COM OVERCLOCK DE 700 MHZ GPU E MEMORIA 531 MHZ DDR2 !!!!
ofcourse shubh is right. ive tested both of em in my pc.
what i found is 9500 is 70% better than 5450
In a machine with only PCI slots, these two were the top dogs for a long time. The GT520/610 cards that Zotac released in PCI after these two have only managed to knock off the HD5450 for the number two spot. 9500GT is still faster. It might be another generation or two, if ever, before someone releases a PCI card with both more features and more speed than 9500GT.
