Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 1060 vs Radeon RX 470
IntroThe GeForce GTX 1060 makes use of a 16 nm design. nVidia has set the core frequency at 1506 MHz. The GDDR5 memory works at a frequency of 2000 MHz on this specific model. It features 1280 SPUs as well as 80 Texture Address Units and 48 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare all that to the Radeon RX 470, which features GPU clock speed of 926 MHz, and 8192 MB of GDDR5 memory running at 1650 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also features 2048 Stream Processors, 128 TAUs, and 32 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksBoth cards have the same power consumption.Memory BandwidthIn theory, the Radeon RX 470 should be 7% quicker than the GeForce GTX 1060 overall, due to its higher data rate. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 1060 should be just a bit (about 2%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the Radeon RX 470. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 1060 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: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (measured in MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface in a second. It is worked out by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core 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 applied in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
