Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce 8800 GTS (G80) 640MB vs Radeon HD 7750
IntroThe GeForce 8800 GTS (G80) 640MB has a GPU clock speed of 513 MHz, and the 640 MB of GDDR3 RAM runs at 792 MHz through a 320-bit bus. It also features 96 Stream Processors, 48 Texture Address Units, and 20 ROPs.Compare those specs to the Radeon HD 7750, which features core speeds of 800 MHz on the GPU, and 1125 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 512 SPUs as well as 32 Texture Address Units and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthIn theory, the Radeon HD 7750 will be 14% quicker than the GeForce 8800 GTS (G80) 640MB overall, due to its greater data rate. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon HD 7750 should be a bit (approximately 4%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce 8800 GTS (G80) 640MB. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon HD 7750 should be quite a bit (more or less 25%) better at FSAA than the GeForce 8800 GTS (G80) 640MB, and also should be capable of handling higher resolutions while still performing well. (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 max amount of information (counted in MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface within a second. It's worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better 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 processed per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics card could possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of ROPs 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 quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
