Radeon HD 5570 vs Radeon HD 7750

Intro

The Radeon HD 5570 features a clock speed of 650 MHz and a DDR3 memory frequency of 900 MHz. It also makes use of a 128-bit memory bus, and uses a 40 nm design. It is made up of 400(80x5) SPUs, 20 TAUs, and 8 Raster Operation Units.

Compare those specs to the Radeon HD 7750, which comes with GPU core speed of 800 MHz, and 1024 MB of GDDR5 memory set to run at 1125 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also features 512 SPUs, 32 TAUs, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the max amount of information (measured in MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.

Caramac says:

Plenty of ATI Radeon HD 7750 1GB graphics cards are just ancient DDR3.

Buyer beware, many versions released.

Powercolor has (10) versions listed.
(6) with GDDR5 and (4) with DDR3.
Just some of them:
Low Profile (4)DP - 2GB GDDR5
Full DVI/HDMI/DP -1GB GDDR5

Full DVI/HDMI/VGA -2GB DDR3
Full DVI/HDMI/VGA -1GB DDR3

DDR3 - memory clocked 800
GDDR5 - memory clocked 1125

Each DDR3 card is either "UEFI READY" or is not, leading to the four.

That is just Powercolor alone!
