Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon RX 590 vs Radeon RX 6600
IntroThe Radeon RX 590 features a clock speed of 1469 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 2000 MHz. It also features a 256-bit bus, and uses a 12 nm design. It is made up of 2304 SPUs, 144 Texture Address Units, and 32 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 6600, which uses a 7 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 1626 MHz. The GDDR6 memory works at a speed of 1750 MHz on this specific model. It features 1792 SPUs as well as 112 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthPerformance-wise, the Radeon RX 590 should theoretically be a little bit better than the Radeon RX 6600 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 590 should be just a bit (more or less 16%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the Radeon RX 6600. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with a high resolution is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6600 is the winner, by far. (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 maximum amount of data (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface within a second. It's calculated by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This 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 texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the graphics card could possibly write to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
