Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 980M vs Radeon HD 5750 1GB
IntroThe GeForce GTX 980M comes with core speeds of 1038 MHz on the GPU, and 1000 MHz on the 4096 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 1536 SPUs as well as 96 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specs to the Radeon HD 5750 1GB, which makes use of a 40 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 700 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM works at a speed of 1150 MHz on this specific model. It features 720(144x5) SPUs as well as 36 Texture Address Units and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the GeForce GTX 980M should be much faster than the Radeon HD 5750 1GB in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 980M should be much (more or less 295%) better at AF than the Radeon HD 5750 1GB. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 980M 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 maximum amount of information (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. 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 reach the max fill rate.
