Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GT 220 GDDR3 vs Radeon HD 6450 (OEM) 1GB
IntroThe GeForce GT 220 GDDR3 comes with clock speeds of 625 MHz on the GPU, and 1012 MHz on the 512 MB of GDDR3 RAM. It features 48 SPUs along with 16 Texture Address Units and 8 ROPs.Compare those specs to the Radeon HD 6450 (OEM) 1GB, which has a core clock speed of 750 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 900 MHz. It also makes use of a 64-bit bus, and uses a 40 nm design. It features 160 SPUs, 8 Texture Address Units, and 4 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the GeForce GT 220 GDDR3 will be 12% quicker than the Radeon HD 6450 (OEM) 1GB in general, because of its higher bandwidth. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GT 220 GDDR3 is a lot (approximately 67%) faster with regards to AF than the Radeon HD 6450 (OEM) 1GB. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GT 220 GDDR3 is much (about 67%) better at AA than the Radeon HD 6450 (OEM) 1GB, and also able to handle higher 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 (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in a second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR 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 anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the graphics 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 number of pixels the graphics card could possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the the card's clock speed. 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 rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
