Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon HD 6570 (OEM) 2GB vs Radeon R7 250X 2GB
IntroThe Radeon HD 6570 (OEM) 2GB makes use of a 40 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 650 MHz. The GDDR5 memory works at a speed of 1000 MHz on this particular card. It features 480 SPUs along with 24 TAUs and 8 ROPs.Compare that to the Radeon R7 250X 2GB, which has GPU clock speed of 1000 MHz, and 2048 MB of GDDR5 memory set to run at 1125 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is comprised of 640 Stream Processors, 40 TAUs, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthAs far as performance goes, the Radeon R7 250X 2GB should theoretically be a small bit better than the Radeon HD 6570 (OEM) 2GB overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon R7 250X 2GB is much (about 156%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon HD 6570 (OEM) 2GB. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon R7 250X 2GB will be quite a bit (more or less 208%) more effective at full screen anti-aliasing than the Radeon HD 6570 (OEM) 2GB, and also should be able to handle higher screen resolutions while still performing well. (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 max amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, 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 are applied in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in a second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip could possibly write to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure 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 drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate also depends on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
