How are exchange rates on cards that do not charge a fee?

If I spend 100 pounds in the UK with a no fee card vs 100 with a fee card what's the bottom-line? Do I save money on the non fee card or is the exchange rate played with a little? Technically it should be the same USD amount but I don't think it is.
