Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce RTX 3080 Ti vs GeForce RTX 4090
IntroThe GeForce RTX 3080 Ti features core clock speeds of 1365 MHz on the GPU, and 1188 MHz on the 12288 MB of GDDR6X RAM. It features 10240 SPUs as well as 320 Texture Address Units and 112 ROPs.Compare those specs to the GeForce RTX 4090, which makes use of a 4 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core frequency at 2235 MHz. The GDDR6X memory is set to run at a speed of 1325 MHz on this card. It features 16384 SPUs as well as 512 TAUs and 176 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthIn theory, the GeForce RTX 4090 should be a bit faster than the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce RTX 4090 will be a lot (approximately 162%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce RTX 4090 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 (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface within a second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock 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 most pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant 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.
