Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 1630 vs Radeon RX 550
IntroThe GeForce GTX 1630 comes with a GPU core speed of 1740 MHz, and the 4096 MB of GDDR6 RAM is set to run at 1500 MHz through a 64-bit bus. It also features 512 SPUs, 32 TAUs, and 16 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 550, which features a clock speed of 1100 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 1750 MHz. It also makes use of a 128-bit bus, and uses a 14 nm design. It is comprised of 512 SPUs, 32 TAUs, and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe Radeon RX 550 should theoretically perform just a bit faster than the GeForce GTX 1630 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 1630 should be quite a bit (about 58%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the Radeon RX 550. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 1630 is quite a bit (about 58%) better at anti-aliasing than the Radeon RX 550, and also should be capable of handling higher screen resolutions better. (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 data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface in a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the 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 write to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
