Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce RTX 3050 vs Radeon HD 7950 3GB
IntroThe GeForce RTX 3050 comes with a GPU core speed of 1552 MHz, and the 8192 MB of GDDR6 memory is set to run at 1750 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is made up of 2560 SPUs, 80 Texture Address Units, and 32 ROPs.Compare all of that to the Radeon HD 7950 3GB, which comes with a clock speed of 800 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1250 MHz. It also features a 384-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 28 nm design. It is comprised of 1792 SPUs, 112 Texture Address Units, and 32 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthPerformance-wise, the Radeon HD 7950 3GB should in theory be a little bit better than the GeForce RTX 3050 in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce RTX 3050 will be much (approximately 39%) better at AF than the Radeon HD 7950 3GB. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce RTX 3050 is a better choice, by a large margin. (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 (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface within a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the video card can possibly record to its 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 the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
