GeForce RTX 2060 vs Radeon R7 370 4G

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon R7 370 4G, which features a GPU core clock speed of 975 MHz, and 4096 MB of GDDR5 memory set to run at 1400 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also is comprised of 1024 Stream Processors, 64 TAUs, and 32 Raster Operation Units.

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2060 will be a lot (about 163%) more effective at texture filtering than the Radeon R7 370 4G. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2060		163800 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R7 370 4G		62400 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 101400 (163%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2060 should be much (more or less 110%) more effective at AA than the Radeon R7 370 4G, and should be able to handle higher resolutions better. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2060		65520 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R7 370 4G		31200 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 34320 (110%)

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.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the max amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transferred across the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the graphics 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 maximum amount of pixels that the graphics card could possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called 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 of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
