Radeon Pro Duo vs Radeon RX 5700 XT

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 5700 XT, which uses a 7 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 1605 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM runs at a speed of 14000 MHz on this particular card. It features 2560 SPUs as well as 160 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 5700 XT		225 Watts
Radeon Pro Duo		350 Watts
	Difference: 125 Watts (56%)

Memory Bandwidth

As far as performance goes, the Radeon Pro Duo should in theory be a lot superior to the Radeon RX 5700 XT overall. (explain)

Radeon Pro Duo		1024000 MB/sec
Radeon RX 5700 XT		458752 MB/sec
	Difference: 565248 (123%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon Pro Duo should be quite a bit (more or less 99%) better at texture filtering than the Radeon RX 5700 XT. (explain)

Radeon Pro Duo		512000 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 5700 XT		256800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 255200 (99%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon Pro Duo should be much (about 25%) more effective at AA than the Radeon RX 5700 XT, and also will be able to handle higher resolutions more effectively. (explain)

Radeon Pro Duo		128000 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 5700 XT		102720 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 25280 (25%)

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.

One or more cards in this comparison are multi-core. This means that their bandwidth, texel and pixel rates are theoretically doubled - this does not mean the card will actually perform twice as fast, but only that it should in theory be able to. Actual game benchmarks will give a more accurate idea of what it's capable of.

Price Comparison

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (measured in MB per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip could possibly write to its local memory per 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 - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
