Nvidia Titan Xp vs Radeon RX 5700

Intro

Compare that to the Radeon RX 5700, which comes with a GPU core clock 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 SPUs, 144 TAUs, and 64 ROPs.

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 5700		180 Watts
Nvidia Titan Xp		250 Watts
	Difference: 70 Watts (39%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Nvidia Titan Xp should be a lot faster than the Radeon RX 5700 in general. (explain)

Nvidia Titan Xp		560845 MB/sec
Radeon RX 5700		458752 MB/sec
	Difference: 102093 (22%)

Texel Rate

The Nvidia Titan Xp should be quite a bit (more or less 80%) faster with regards to AF than the Radeon RX 5700. (explain)

Nvidia Titan Xp		379680 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 5700		210960 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 168720 (80%)

Pixel Rate

The Nvidia Titan Xp will be a lot (about 62%) more effective at full screen anti-aliasing than the Radeon RX 5700, and also able to handle higher screen resolutions while still performing well. (explain)

Nvidia Titan Xp		151872 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 5700		93760 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 58112 (62%)

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 megabytes per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics card could possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
