Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce 8800 GTS (G80) 640MB vs Radeon Vega Frontier Edition
IntroThe GeForce 8800 GTS (G80) 640MB features core clock speeds of 513 MHz on the GPU, and 792 MHz on the 640 MB of GDDR3 RAM. It features 96 SPUs as well as 48 Texture Address Units and 20 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specifications to the Radeon Vega Frontier Edition, which features a clock speed of 1382 MHz and a HBM2 memory frequency of 1890 MHz. It also uses a 2048-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 14 nm design. It is comprised of 4096 SPUs, 256 TAUs, and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe Radeon Vega Frontier Edition should theoretically perform a lot faster than the GeForce 8800 GTS (G80) 640MB in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon Vega Frontier Edition is a lot (more or less 1337%) better at AF than the GeForce 8800 GTS (G80) 640MB. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon Vega Frontier Edition is superior to the GeForce 8800 GTS (G80) 640MB, by a large margin. (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 largest amount of information (counted in MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card could possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount 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 fill rate also depends on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
