Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GT 440 1.5GB vs Radeon HD 6750
IntroThe GeForce GT 440 1.5GB comes with a GPU core clock speed of 594 MHz, and the 1536 MB of GDDR3 memory runs at 900 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also is made up of 144 SPUs, 24 TAUs, and 24 Raster Operation Units.Compare all of that to the Radeon HD 6750, which comes with GPU core speed of 725 MHz, and 512 MB of GDDR5 memory running at 1000 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is made up of 720 SPUs, 36 TAUs, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthTheoretically speaking, the Radeon HD 6750 is 48% quicker than the GeForce GT 440 1.5GB overall, because of its greater data rate. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon HD 6750 is much (more or less 83%) better at AF than the GeForce GT 440 1.5GB. (explain)
Pixel RateIf using high levels of AA is important to you, then the GeForce GT 440 1.5GB is a better choice, by far. (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 information (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher 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 texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the card will be at 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 graphics card can possibly write to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's 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 rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
