Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon HD 6450 (OEM) vs Radeon RX 5500 XT
IntroThe Radeon HD 6450 (OEM) features a core clock speed of 625 MHz and a GDDR3 memory speed of 800 MHz. It also features a 64-bit bus, and makes use of a 40 nm design. It is made up of 160 SPUs, 8 Texture Address Units, and 4 Raster Operation Units.Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 5500 XT, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 1717 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM runs at a frequency of 1750 MHz on this particular model. It features 1408 SPUs as well as 88 TAUs and 32 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthIn theory, the Radeon RX 5500 XT should be 1692% faster than the Radeon HD 6450 (OEM) overall, because of its higher data rate. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 5500 XT should be quite a bit (about 2922%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the Radeon HD 6450 (OEM). (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with a high resolution is important to you, then the Radeon RX 5500 XT is a better choice, 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 max amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card can possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. 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 get to the max fill rate.
