Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon HD 4650 1GB vs Radeon HD 6750 1GB
IntroThe Radeon HD 4650 1GB uses a 55 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 600 MHz. The GDDR3 RAM works at a speed of 700 MHz on this specific card. It features 320(64x5) SPUs along with 32 TAUs and 8 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare all of that to the Radeon HD 6750 1GB, which features core clock speeds of 725 MHz on the GPU, and 1000 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 720 SPUs as well as 36 Texture Address Units and 16 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthAs far as performance goes, the Radeon HD 6750 1GB should theoretically be quite a bit superior to the Radeon HD 4650 1GB in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon HD 6750 1GB should be much (approximately 36%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon HD 4650 1GB. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon HD 6750 1GB will be a lot (approximately 142%) more effective at full screen anti-aliasing than the Radeon HD 4650 1GB, and also should be capable of handling higher screen resolutions without slowing down too much. (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 largest amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one 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 better the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics card could possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
