GeForce GTX 1070 Ti vs Radeon RX 560

Intro

The GeForce GTX 1070 Ti comes with a clock speed of 1607 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 2000 MHz. It also makes use of a 256-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 16 nm design. It is comprised of 2432 SPUs, 152 TAUs, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Compare all that to the Radeon RX 560, which has core clock speeds of 1175 MHz on the GPU, and 1750 MHz on the 4096 MB of GDDR5 memory. It features 1024 SPUs as well as 64 Texture Address Units and 16 ROPs.

Radeon RX 560 114688 MB/sec
Difference: 147456 (129%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1070 Ti will be quite a bit (more or less 225%) faster with regards to AF than the Radeon RX 560. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1070 Ti 244264 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 560 75200 Mtexels/sec
Difference: 169064 (225%)

Pixel Rate

If using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti is superior to the Radeon RX 560, and very much so. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1070 Ti 102848 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 560 18800 Mpixels/sec
Difference: 84048 (447%)

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.

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the max amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface within a second. It's calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, 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 maximum number of pixels the graphics card can possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out 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 drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
