GeForce GTX 1060 vs Radeon R9 Fury X

Intro

The GeForce GTX 1060 has a GPU core speed of 1506 MHz, and the 6144 MB of GDDR5 RAM runs at 2000 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also is made up of 1280 SPUs, 80 Texture Address Units, and 48 Raster Operation Units.

Compare those specifications to the Radeon R9 Fury X, which uses a 28 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 1050 MHz. The HBM RAM works at a frequency of 500 MHz on this particular card. It features 4096 SPUs along with 256 TAUs and 64 ROPs.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the max amount of information (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the video card could possibly write to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate also depends on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
