Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon HD 3650 vs Radeon HD 6670 (OEM)
IntroThe Radeon HD 3650 comes with a GPU clock speed of 725 MHz, and the 1024 MB of GDDR4 memory runs at 800 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is comprised of 120(24x5) SPUs, 8 TAUs, and 4 Raster Operation Units.Compare all of that to the Radeon HD 6670 (OEM), which has a core clock frequency of 800 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1000 MHz. It also features a 128-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 40 nm design. It is made up of 480 SPUs, 24 Texture Address Units, and 8 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthAs far as performance goes, the Radeon HD 6670 (OEM) should theoretically be a lot better than the Radeon HD 3650 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon HD 6670 (OEM) should be a lot (about 231%) more effective at AF than the Radeon HD 3650. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon HD 6670 (OEM) is superior to the Radeon HD 3650, by a large margin. (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 data (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred across the external memory interface in one second. The number is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock 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 most pixels the graphics card can possibly write to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
