Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce RTX 3050 vs GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB
IntroThe GeForce RTX 3050 has core speeds of 1552 MHz on the GPU, and 1750 MHz on the 8192 MB of GDDR6 RAM. It features 2560 SPUs as well as 80 Texture Address Units and 32 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB, which uses a 8 nm design. nVidia has set the core speed at 1260 MHz. The GDDR6X RAM works at a speed of 1188 MHz on this particular model. It features 8960 SPUs as well as 280 Texture Address Units and 112 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthIn theory, the GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB should perform quite a bit faster than the GeForce RTX 3050 in general. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB is much (approximately 184%) more effective at texture filtering than the GeForce RTX 3050. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB should be a lot (more or less 184%) faster with regards to anti-aliasing than the GeForce RTX 3050, and also will be capable of handling higher resolutions without losing too much performance. (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: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface in a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the graphics 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 colour ROPs by the the core 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 output rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
