Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB vs Radeon R9 M265X
IntroThe GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB comes with a GPU core speed of 1260 MHz, and the 12288 MB of GDDR6X memory runs at 1188 MHz through a 384-bit bus. It also features 8960 SPUs, 280 TAUs, and 112 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon R9 M265X, which comes with a core clock speed of 575 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 1125 MHz. It also makes use of a 128-bit bus, and uses a 28 nm design. It is comprised of 640 SPUs, 40 Texture Address Units, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksMemory BandwidthIn theory, the GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB should be quite a bit faster than the Radeon R9 M265X overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB is much (approximately 1434%) faster with regards to AF than the Radeon R9 M265X. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB is a lot (about 1434%) more effective at anti-aliasing than the Radeon R9 M265X, and should be capable of handling 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 largest amount of data (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the graphics card will be at 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 graphics card can possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate also depends on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
