Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon R9 Nano vs Radeon RX 6950 XT
IntroThe Radeon R9 Nano uses a 28 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 1000 MHz. The HBM memory runs at a speed of 500 MHz on this model. It features 4096 SPUs along with 256 TAUs and 64 ROPs.Compare all that to the Radeon RX 6950 XT, which has clock speeds of 1925 MHz on the GPU, and 2250 MHz on the 16384 MB of GDDR6 memory. It features 5120 SPUs along with 320 Texture Address Units and 128 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthAs far as performance goes, the Radeon RX 6950 XT should theoretically be just a bit better than the Radeon R9 Nano overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 6950 XT will be quite a bit (more or less 141%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon R9 Nano. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6950 XT is the winner, 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 largest amount of data (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's interface 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 bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the 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 maximum amount of pixels the video card could possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate also depends on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
