Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon HD 4650 1GB vs Radeon HD 6450 (OEM)
IntroThe Radeon HD 4650 1GB comes with a GPU clock speed of 600 MHz, and the 1024 MB of GDDR3 RAM is set to run at 700 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is made up of 320(64x5) Stream Processors, 32 TAUs, and 8 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon HD 6450 (OEM), which has a GPU core clock speed of 625 MHz, and 512 MB of GDDR3 RAM running at 800 MHz through a 64-bit bus. It also is made up of 160 SPUs, 8 TAUs, and 4 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe Radeon HD 4650 1GB should theoretically perform much faster than the Radeon HD 6450 (OEM) in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon HD 4650 1GB should be quite a bit (more or less 284%) better at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon HD 6450 (OEM). (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon HD 4650 1GB will be much (approximately 92%) faster with regards to anti-aliasing than the Radeon HD 6450 (OEM), and should be able to handle higher 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: Bandwidth is the largest amount of information (measured in MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip could possibly write to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
