Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon R9 390 8G vs Radeon RX 5700
IntroThe Radeon R9 390 8G features a GPU core speed of 1000 MHz, and the 8192 MB of GDDR5 RAM is set to run at 1500 MHz through a 512-bit bus. It also is comprised of 2560 Stream Processors, 160 TAUs, and 64 Raster Operation Units.Compare all that to the Radeon RX 5700, which has clock speeds of 1465 MHz on the GPU, and 1750 MHz on the 8096 MB of GDDR6 memory. It features 2304 SPUs as well as 144 Texture Address Units and 64 ROPs.
Display Graphs
Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthIn theory, the Radeon RX 5700 is 19% faster than the Radeon R9 390 8G in general, because of its higher data rate. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 5700 will be quite a bit (more or less 32%) better at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon R9 390 8G. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon RX 5700 is much (more or less 47%) faster with regards to FSAA than the Radeon R9 390 8G, and also capable of handling higher resolutions better. (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: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of information (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the video card could possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
