GeForce RTX 2080 vs Radeon Pro Duo

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon Pro Duo, which has a clock speed of 1000 MHz and a HBM memory speed of 500 MHz. It also makes use of a 4096-bit memory bus, and uses a 28 nm design. It is comprised of 4096 SPUs, 256 TAUs, and 64 ROPs.

GeForce RTX 2080		458752 MB/sec
	Difference: 565248 (123%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon Pro Duo should be quite a bit (approximately 84%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 2080. (explain)

Radeon Pro Duo		512000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080		278760 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 233240 (84%)

Pixel Rate

If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon Pro Duo is superior to the GeForce RTX 2080, and very much so. (explain)

Radeon Pro Duo		128000 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080		96960 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 31040 (32%)

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.

One or more cards in this comparison are multi-core. This means that their bandwidth, texel and pixel rates are theoretically doubled - this does not mean the card will actually perform twice as fast, but only that it should in theory be able to. Actual game benchmarks will give a more accurate idea of what it's capable of.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the largest amount of information (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the core 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 rate also depends on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
