Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon HD 5570 vs Radeon R7 M265
IntroThe Radeon HD 5570 makes use of a 40 nm design. AMD has set the core speed at 650 MHz. The DDR3 memory runs at a frequency of 900 MHz on this specific card. It features 400(80x5) SPUs along with 20 TAUs and 8 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare all that to the Radeon R7 M265, which has core speeds of 725 MHz on the GPU, and 1000 MHz on the 2048 MB of DDR3 RAM. It features 384 SPUs as well as 24 TAUs and 8 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksMemory BandwidthThe Radeon R7 M265, in theory, should perform a small bit faster than the Radeon HD 5570 in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon R7 M265 will be much (more or less 34%) more effective at AF than the Radeon HD 5570. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon R7 M265 is superior to the Radeon HD 5570, though not by far. (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 (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred across the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better 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 number of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher 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 number of pixels the video card could possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
