Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce 9600 GSO 768MB vs Radeon HD 6750
IntroThe GeForce 9600 GSO 768MB has core speeds of 550 MHz on the GPU, and 800 MHz on the 768 MB of GDDR3 RAM. It features 96 SPUs as well as 48 TAUs and 12 ROPs.Compare those specifications to the Radeon HD 6750, which has a GPU core clock speed of 725 MHz, and 512 MB of GDDR5 RAM running at 1000 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also features 720 Stream Processors, 36 Texture Address Units, and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe Radeon HD 6750 should in theory be quite a bit faster than the GeForce 9600 GSO 768MB overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce 9600 GSO 768MB should be just a bit (more or less 1%) more effective at AF than the Radeon HD 6750. (explain)
Pixel RateThe Radeon HD 6750 will be a lot (more or less 76%) faster with regards to AA than the GeForce 9600 GSO 768MB, and also able to handle 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 max amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface in a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the graphics card could possibly write to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
