Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon R9 390X 8G vs Radeon RX 5600 XT
IntroThe Radeon R9 390X 8G uses a 28 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 1050 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM is set to run at a frequency of 1500 MHz on this card. It features 2816 SPUs along with 176 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 5600 XT, which uses a 7 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 1375 MHz. The GDDR6 memory is set to run at a frequency of 1500 MHz on this model. It features 2304 SPUs as well as 144 TAUs and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the Radeon R9 390X 8G will be 12% faster than the Radeon RX 5600 XT in general, because of its greater bandwidth. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 5600 XT is a small bit (approximately 7%) faster with regards to AF than the Radeon R9 390X 8G. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon RX 5600 XT is much (approximately 31%) faster with regards to FSAA than the Radeon R9 390X 8G, and able to handle higher screen resolutions while still performing well. (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 data (counted in MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once 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 high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per 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 video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics card could possibly write to its local memory in a 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 - 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 quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
