Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce 8800 Ultra vs GeForce GTX 1630
IntroThe GeForce 8800 Ultra has core clock speeds of 612 MHz on the GPU, and 1080 MHz on the 768 MB of GDDR3 RAM. It features 128 SPUs as well as 64 TAUs and 24 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare those specifications to the GeForce GTX 1630, which comes with a clock frequency of 1740 MHz and a GDDR6 memory frequency of 1500 MHz. It also features a 64-bit memory bus, and uses a 12 nm design. It features 512 SPUs, 32 Texture Address Units, and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthAs far as performance goes, the GeForce 8800 Ultra should in theory be a small bit superior to the GeForce GTX 1630 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 1630 is quite a bit (more or less 42%) faster with regards to AF than the GeForce 8800 Ultra. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 1630 should be a lot (about 90%) faster with regards to anti-aliasing than the GeForce 8800 Ultra, and will be able to handle higher screen resolutions more effectively. (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 (measured in MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 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, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card could possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number 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 filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate also depends on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
