VS

GeForce RTX 2070 Super vs Radeon RX 5700

Intro

The GeForce RTX 2070 Super makes use of a 12 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core speed at 1605 MHz. The GDDR6 memory runs at a frequency of 1750 MHz on this specific model. It features 2560 SPUs along with 160 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 5700, which comes with GPU core speed of 1465 MHz, and 8096 MB of GDDR6 memory set to run at 1750 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also is made up of 2304 Stream Processors, 144 TAUs, and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 5700 180 Watts
GeForce RTX 2070 Super 215 Watts
Difference: 35 Watts (19%)

Memory Bandwidth

Both cards have the exact same memory bandwidth, so theoretically they should have identical performance. (explain)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2070 Super will be much (approximately 22%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon RX 5700. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2070 Super 256800 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 5700 210960 Mtexels/sec
Difference: 45840 (22%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2070 Super should be a little bit (about 10%) better at anti-aliasing than the Radeon RX 5700, and able to handle higher screen resolutions more effectively. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2070 Super 102720 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 5700 93760 Mpixels/sec
Difference: 8960 (10%)

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 maximum amount of information (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of colour 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 rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
