Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce RTX 3090 vs Radeon RX 7900 XTX
IntroThe GeForce RTX 3090 uses a 8 nm design. nVidia has set the core frequency at 1395 MHz. The GDDR6X RAM works at a speed of 1219 MHz on this card. It features 10496 SPUs as well as 328 Texture Address Units and 112 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 7900 XTX, which features a clock frequency of 1855 MHz and a GDDR6 memory speed of 2500 MHz. It also makes use of a 384-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 5 nm design. It is comprised of 6144 SPUs, 384 Texture Address Units, and 192 Raster Operation Units.
Display Graphs
Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthIn theory, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX will be 3% faster than the GeForce RTX 3090 in general, because of its greater data rate. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 7900 XTX will be much (more or less 56%) better at texture filtering than the GeForce RTX 3090. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon RX 7900 XTX should be quite a bit (more or less 128%) better at full screen anti-aliasing than the GeForce RTX 3090, and capable of handling higher screen resolutions without losing too much performance. (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 (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics card could possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
