Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GT 440 3GB vs Radeon RX 5500 XT
IntroThe GeForce GT 440 3GB features a core clock frequency of 594 MHz and a GDDR3 memory frequency of 900 MHz. It also makes use of a 192-bit bus, and makes use of a 40 nm design. It features 144 SPUs, 24 TAUs, and 24 Raster Operation Units.Compare those specs to the Radeon RX 5500 XT, which features core speeds of 1717 MHz on the GPU, and 1750 MHz on the 8192 MB of GDDR6 memory. It features 1408 SPUs as well as 88 TAUs and 32 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe Radeon RX 5500 XT should theoretically perform much faster than the GeForce GT 440 3GB overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 5500 XT will be a lot (more or less 960%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GT 440 3GB. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using a high screen resolution is important to you, then the Radeon RX 5500 XT is the winner, and very much so. (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 (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. 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 are processed per second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics 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 maximum number of pixels the video card can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the core 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 output rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
