Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Radeon RX 5500 XT is 552% quicker than the Radeon R9 M375 in general, due to its greater bandwidth. (explain)

Radeon RX 5500 XT		229376 MB/sec
Radeon R9 M375		35200 MB/sec
	Difference: 194176 (552%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 5500 XT is a lot (approximately 272%) better at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon R9 M375. (explain)

Radeon RX 5500 XT		151096 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R9 M375		40600 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 110496 (272%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 5500 XT will be a lot (approximately 238%) faster with regards to anti-aliasing than the Radeon R9 M375, and should be capable of handling higher resolutions without slowing down too much. (explain)

Radeon RX 5500 XT		54944 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R9 M375		16240 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 38704 (238%)

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

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the max amount of data (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in a second. It's worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one 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 in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics card could possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the clock speed of the card. 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 memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
