Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB vs Radeon R7 370 2G
IntroThe GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB makes use of a 8 nm design. nVidia has set the core speed at 1260 MHz. The GDDR6X memory works at a frequency of 1188 MHz on this card. It features 8960 SPUs as well as 280 TAUs and 112 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specifications to the Radeon R7 370 2G, which features a clock speed of 975 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1400 MHz. It also uses a 256-bit bus, and uses a 28 nm design. It is made up of 1024 SPUs, 64 Texture Address Units, and 32 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB should perform a lot faster than the Radeon R7 370 2G overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB should be much (more or less 465%) better at AF than the Radeon R7 370 2G. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB is a lot (approximately 352%) faster with regards to anti-aliasing than the Radeon R7 370 2G, and capable of handling higher resolutions more effectively. (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 information (in units of MB per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface in a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount 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 handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card could possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
