Compare any two graphics cards:
Radeon HD 7950 3GB vs Radeon RX 5600
IntroThe Radeon HD 7950 3GB uses a 28 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 800 MHz. The GDDR5 memory is set to run at a speed of 1250 MHz on this particular card. It features 1792 SPUs along with 112 TAUs and 32 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 5600, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 1375 MHz. The GDDR6 memory runs at a frequency of 1500 MHz on this particular card. It features 2048 SPUs along with 128 TAUs and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the Radeon RX 5600 should be 23% quicker than the Radeon HD 7950 3GB overall, because of its higher data rate. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon RX 5600 is quite a bit (approximately 96%) better at texture filtering than the Radeon HD 7950 3GB. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon RX 5600 is a better choice, 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 max amount of information (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the video card can possibly write to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
