GeForce GTX 560 Ti vs GeForce RTX 2060

Intro

Compare those specifications to the GeForce RTX 2060, which comes with GPU clock speed of 1365 MHz, and 6144 MB of GDDR6 memory running at 1750 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also features 1920 SPUs, 120 TAUs, and 48 ROPs.

GeForce GTX 560 Ti		128256 MB/sec
	Difference: 215808 (168%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2060 is a lot (about 211%) more effective at AF than the GeForce GTX 560 Ti. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2060		163800 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 560 Ti		52608 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 111192 (211%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2060 should be quite a bit (more or less 149%) faster with regards to full screen anti-aliasing than the GeForce GTX 560 Ti, and capable of handling higher screen resolutions without slowing down too much. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2060		65520 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 560 Ti		26304 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 39216 (149%)

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: Bandwidth is the largest amount of information (measured in MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in one second. It's calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are processed in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount 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 in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the video card can possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs 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 output rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
