Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon HD 6750 1GB vs Radeon R9 295X2
IntroThe Radeon HD 6750 1GB features a clock speed of 725 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 1000 MHz. It also features a 128-bit bus, and makes use of a 40 nm design. It is comprised of 720 SPUs, 36 Texture Address Units, and 16 ROPs.Compare all that to the Radeon R9 295X2, which makes use of a 28 nm design. AMD has set the core speed at 1018 MHz. The GDDR5 memory runs at a speed of 1250 MHz on this card. It features 2816 SPUs along with 176 TAUs and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the Radeon R9 295X2 is 900% quicker than the Radeon HD 6750 1GB in general, due to its higher bandwidth. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon R9 295X2 should be a lot (approximately 1273%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the Radeon HD 6750 1GB. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using a high screen resolution is important to you, then the Radeon R9 295X2 is superior to the Radeon HD 6750 1GB, 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. One or more cards in this comparison are multi-core. This means that their bandwidth, texel and pixel rates are theoretically doubled - this does not mean the card will actually perform twice as fast, but only that it should in theory be able to. Actual game benchmarks will give a more accurate idea of what it's capable of. Price Comparison

Display Specifications
Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the max amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface within a second. It's calculated by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen 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 amount of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
