Radeon HD 5830 128000 MB/sec
Radeon HD 5750 512MB 73600 MB/sec
Difference: 54400 (74%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon HD 5830 will be much (approximately 78%) faster with regards to AF than the Radeon HD 5750 512MB. (explain)

Radeon HD 5830 44800 Mtexels/sec
Radeon HD 5750 512MB 25200 Mtexels/sec
Difference: 19600 (78%)

Pixel Rate

If running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon HD 5830 is the winner, but only just. (explain)

Radeon HD 5830 12800 Mpixels/sec
Radeon HD 5750 512MB 11200 Mpixels/sec
Difference: 1600 (14%)

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.

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics card could possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.

I am currently running the XFX Radeon HD 4770 with the AMD Phenom 8400 triple core processor in an MSI 7309 mobo with 4 gigs-(2x2gb) of Corsair PC2-6400 RAM and am playing Call of Duty4 Modern Warfare on max settings and it runs excellent. So my vote goes to the Radeon HD 4770.
