Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce 9800 GT 512MB vs Radeon HD 5670
IntroThe GeForce 9800 GT 512MB uses a 65/55 nm design. nVidia has set the core frequency at 600 MHz. The GDDR3 memory works at a speed of 900 MHz on this particular model. It features 112 SPUs along with 56 Texture Address Units and 16 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon HD 5670, which comes with GPU clock speed of 775 MHz, and 1024 MB of GDDR5 memory set to run at 1000 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is comprised of 400(80x5) SPUs, 20 Texture Address Units, and 8 ROPs.
Display Graphs
Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the Radeon HD 5670 will be 11% quicker than the GeForce 9800 GT 512MB overall, due to its higher bandwidth. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce 9800 GT 512MB will be quite a bit (more or less 117%) more effective at texture filtering than the Radeon HD 5670. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using a high resolution is important to you, then the GeForce 9800 GT 512MB is a better choice, by a large margin. (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 maximum amount of information (counted in MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface within a second. It's calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes 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, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.

looks like hd5670 would be fast, just wait a few weeks when its driver is already matured so we can play modern games at good settings 🙂
