Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce 9800 GTX+ vs GeForce GT 1030
IntroThe GeForce 9800 GTX+ has a core clock speed of 738 MHz and a GDDR3 memory frequency of 1100 MHz. It also makes use of a 256-bit bus, and makes use of a 55 nm design. It is comprised of 128 SPUs, 64 TAUs, and 16 ROPs.Compare all of that to the GeForce GT 1030, which has GPU core speed of 1265 MHz, and 2048 MB of GDDR5 RAM set to run at 1502 MHz through a 64-bit bus. It also features 384 Stream Processors, 32 Texture Address Units, and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe GeForce 9800 GTX+ should theoretically be quite a bit faster than the GeForce GT 1030 in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce 9800 GTX+ is just a bit (more or less 17%) faster with regards to anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GT 1030. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GT 1030 is much (approximately 71%) faster with regards to anti-aliasing than the GeForce 9800 GTX+, and also should be capable of handling 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 maximum amount of information (in units of MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface within a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total amount 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 per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
