Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon R9 390X 8G vs Radeon R9 Nano
IntroThe Radeon R9 390X 8G comes with core speeds of 1050 MHz on the GPU, and 1500 MHz on the 8192 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 2816 SPUs as well as 176 Texture Address Units and 64 ROPs.Compare those specs to the Radeon R9 Nano, which makes use of a 28 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 1000 MHz. The HBM RAM runs at a frequency of 500 MHz on this specific card. It features 4096 SPUs along with 256 Texture Address Units and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthPerformance-wise, the Radeon R9 Nano should in theory be a lot better than the Radeon R9 390X 8G overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon R9 Nano is a lot (about 39%) faster with regards to anisotropic filtering than the Radeon R9 390X 8G. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon R9 390X 8G is the winner, but not 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: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (measured in MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card 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 per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly write to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
