GeForce GTX 1650 vs Radeon RX 5600

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 5600, which comes with GPU core speed of 1375 MHz, and 6144 MB of GDDR6 memory running at 1500 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also is comprised of 2048 SPUs, 128 TAUs, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GTX 1650		75 Watts
Radeon RX 5600		150 Watts
	Difference: 75 Watts (100%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Radeon RX 5600 should be quite a bit faster than the GeForce GTX 1650 overall. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600		294912 MB/sec
GeForce GTX 1650		131072 MB/sec
	Difference: 163840 (125%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 should be quite a bit (more or less 112%) more effective at AF than the GeForce GTX 1650. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600		176000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 1650		83160 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 92840 (112%)

Pixel Rate

If running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon RX 5600 is a better choice, by far. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600		88000 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 1650		47520 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 40480 (85%)

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 largest amount of data (measured in MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better 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 number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the graphics card can possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines 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 quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
