Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce RTX 3060 vs Radeon RX 6650 XT
IntroThe GeForce RTX 3060 has a clock speed of 1320 MHz and a GDDR6 memory frequency of 1875 MHz. It also makes use of a 192-bit bus, and uses a 8 nm design. It features 3584 SPUs, 112 Texture Address Units, and 48 Raster Operation Units.Compare that to the Radeon RX 6650 XT, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has set the core speed at 2055 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM works at a frequency of 2190 MHz on this specific card. It features 2048 SPUs as well as 128 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the GeForce RTX 3060 should be much faster than the Radeon RX 6650 XT in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 6650 XT is quite a bit (about 78%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 3060. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with a high screen resolution is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6650 XT 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 largest amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster 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 can be processed per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the video card will be at 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 that the graphics card can possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka 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 ability to get to the max fill rate.
