GeForce GTX 780 Ti vs Radeon RX Vega 56

Intro

The GeForce GTX 780 Ti uses a 28 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core frequency at 875 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM is set to run at a frequency of 1750 MHz on this specific card. It features 2880 SPUs as well as 240 TAUs and 48 ROPs.

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX Vega 56, which uses a 14 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 1156 MHz. The HBM2 RAM runs at a speed of 1600 MHz on this specific model. It features 3584 SPUs as well as 224 Texture Address Units and 64 ROPs.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of information (measured in MB per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface in a second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, 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 that the graphics chip can possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
