GeForce GTX Titan X vs Radeon RX 5600

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 5600, which features a clock frequency of 1375 MHz and a GDDR6 memory speed of 1500 MHz. It also uses a 192-bit bus, and uses a 7 nm design. It is comprised of 2048 SPUs, 128 Texture Address Units, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Theoretically, the GeForce GTX Titan X should perform a bit faster than the Radeon RX 5600 overall. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		336000 MB/sec
Radeon RX 5600		294912 MB/sec
	Difference: 41088 (14%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX Titan X will be a small bit (about 9%) more effective at texture filtering than the Radeon RX 5600. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		192000 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 5600		176000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 16000 (9%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce GTX Titan X will be a little bit (approximately 9%) better at AA than the Radeon RX 5600, and should be able to handle higher screen resolutions without losing too much performance. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		96000 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 5600		88000 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 8000 (9%)

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: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of information (in units of megabytes per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface in one second. It's calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the graphics 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 number of pixels that the graphics card can possibly write to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the the core 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 output rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
