Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon HD 5750 1GB vs Radeon R7 250X 2GB
IntroThe Radeon HD 5750 1GB uses a 40 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 700 MHz. The GDDR5 memory runs at a speed of 1150 MHz on this model. It features 720(144x5) SPUs along with 36 Texture Address Units and 16 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon R7 250X 2GB, which features a core clock frequency of 1000 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1125 MHz. It also features a 128-bit bus, and makes use of a 28 nm design. It is comprised of 640 SPUs, 40 Texture Address Units, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe Radeon HD 5750 1GB should in theory be a bit faster than the Radeon R7 250X 2GB in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon R7 250X 2GB should be much (more or less 59%) better at texture filtering than the Radeon HD 5750 1GB. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon R7 250X 2GB 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 data (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This is worked out 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 handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics card could possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
