Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon HD 4650 1GB vs Radeon HD 4670 1GB
IntroThe Radeon HD 4650 1GB features a core clock speed of 600 MHz and a GDDR3 memory speed of 700 MHz. It also uses a 128-bit bus, and uses a 55 nm design. It is made up of 320(64x5) SPUs, 32 TAUs, and 8 ROPs.Compare those specs to the Radeon HD 4670 1GB, which has GPU clock speed of 750 MHz, and 1024 MB of GDDR4/GDDR3/DDR3/DDR2 memory set to run at 1100 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is made up of 320(64x5) Stream Processors, 32 Texture Address Units, and 8 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthIn theory, the Radeon HD 4670 1GB should be a lot faster than the Radeon HD 4650 1GB overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon HD 4670 1GB is quite a bit (more or less 25%) better at AF than the Radeon HD 4650 1GB. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with a high resolution is important to you, then the Radeon HD 4670 1GB 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 data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the card's 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 number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics card can possibly record to the 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 the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate also depends on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
