GeForce RTX 2060 Super		175 Watts
	Difference: 125 Watts (250%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the GeForce RTX 2060 Super should perform a lot faster than the GeForce 9500 GT 1GB GDDR3 in general. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2060 Super		458752 MB/sec
GeForce 9500 GT 1GB GDDR3		25600 MB/sec
	Difference: 433152 (1692%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2060 Super is quite a bit (more or less 2172%) faster with regards to AF than the GeForce 9500 GT 1GB GDDR3. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2060 Super		199920 Mtexels/sec
GeForce 9500 GT 1GB GDDR3		8800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 191120 (2172%)

Pixel Rate

If using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce RTX 2060 Super is superior to the GeForce 9500 GT 1GB GDDR3, by a large margin. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2060 Super		94080 Mpixels/sec
GeForce 9500 GT 1GB GDDR3		4400 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 89680 (2038%)

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.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the largest amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in one second. The number is calculated by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR 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 speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the card will be at handling 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 graphics card could possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
