VS

Radeon HD 6450 (OEM) 1GB vs Radeon RX Vega 64

Intro

The Radeon HD 6450 (OEM) 1GB comes with a core clock speed of 750 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 900 MHz. It also makes use of a 64-bit memory bus, and uses a 40 nm design. It is comprised of 160 SPUs, 8 TAUs, and 4 ROPs.

Compare those specs to the Radeon RX Vega 64, which features core clock speeds of 1247 MHz on the GPU, and 1890 MHz on the 8192 MB of HBM2 memory. It features 4096 SPUs along with 256 TAUs and 64 ROPs.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock 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 card's memory bandwidth, 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics card can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
