Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon R9 380 4G vs Radeon RX 470 4GB
IntroThe Radeon R9 380 4G uses a 28 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 970 MHz. The GDDR5 memory is set to run at a speed of 1425 MHz on this specific card. It features 1792 SPUs along with 112 Texture Address Units and 32 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare all that to the Radeon RX 470 4GB, which comes with a GPU core clock speed of 926 MHz, and 4096 MB of GDDR5 RAM set to run at 1650 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also is comprised of 2048 SPUs, 128 TAUs, and 32 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe Radeon RX 470 4GB should in theory be a small bit faster than the Radeon R9 380 4G overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 470 4GB is a bit (more or less 9%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the Radeon R9 380 4G. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with a high screen resolution is important to you, then the Radeon R9 380 4G is the winner, but only just. (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

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the largest amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface within a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. 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 are applied per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the video card can possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output 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.
