Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 1GB vs Radeon HD 6750 1GB
IntroThe GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 1GB uses a 40 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core frequency at 550 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM works at a speed of 850 MHz on this card. It features 96 SPUs as well as 32 TAUs and 8 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon HD 6750 1GB, which features core clock speeds of 725 MHz on the GPU, and 1000 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 720 SPUs as well as 36 TAUs and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthAs far as performance goes, the Radeon HD 6750 1GB should in theory be a little bit superior to the GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 1GB overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon HD 6750 1GB will be a lot (about 48%) better at texture filtering than the GeForce GT 240 GDDR5 1GB. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon HD 6750 1GB is a better choice, by far. (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 largest amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's 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 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card could possibly write to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. 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 max fill rate.
