Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon HD 4670 1GB vs Radeon HD 5670
IntroThe Radeon HD 4670 1GB has clock speeds of 750 MHz on the GPU, and 1100 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR4/GDDR3/DDR3/DDR2 memory. It features 320(64x5) SPUs as well as 32 Texture Address Units and 8 ROPs.Compare all of that to the Radeon HD 5670, which makes use of a 40 nm design. AMD has set the core speed at 775 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM works at a frequency of 1000 MHz on this specific card. It features 400(80x5) SPUs as well as 20 TAUs and 8 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically, the Radeon HD 5670 should be quite a bit faster than the Radeon HD 4670 1GB in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon HD 4670 1GB will be a lot (more or less 55%) better at AF than the Radeon HD 5670. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using a high resolution is important to you, then the Radeon HD 5670 is the winner, but only just. (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 (measured in MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in a second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type RAM, it must 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 higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the video card could possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate also depends on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.

One Response to “Radeon HD 4670 1GB vs Radeon HD 5670”IF WE ARE TALKING = EFFICIENCY CLOCK FOR CLOCK and the 4670 had gddr5 like the 5670 i would say the 4670 would be the best as two stand alone cards on 55 and 40nm 5670 gets the nod
but if at the same nm and clock and same ram id take the 4670 over the 5670
that texture fillrate is insane really and at 800mhz with high bandwidth ram it could be a amazing gpu
