GeForce RTX 2060 Super vs Radeon R9 Fury X

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon R9 Fury X, which has core speeds of 1050 MHz on the GPU, and 500 MHz on the 4096 MB of HBM RAM. It features 4096 SPUs as well as 256 TAUs and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce RTX 2060 Super		175 Watts
Radeon R9 Fury X		275 Watts
	Difference: 100 Watts (57%)

Memory Bandwidth

As far as performance goes, the Radeon R9 Fury X should theoretically be a small bit superior to the GeForce RTX 2060 Super overall. (explain)

Radeon R9 Fury X		512000 MB/sec
GeForce RTX 2060 Super		458752 MB/sec
	Difference: 53248 (12%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon R9 Fury X should be quite a bit (approximately 34%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the GeForce RTX 2060 Super. (explain)

Radeon R9 Fury X		268800 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2060 Super		199920 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 68880 (34%)

Pixel Rate

If using a high resolution is important to you, then the GeForce RTX 2060 Super is a better choice, by a large margin. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2060 Super		94080 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R9 Fury X		67200 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 26880 (40%)

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 (counted in MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface in a second. It is worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster 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 texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This is worked out 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 card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the video card could possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
