GeForce GTX Titan Black vs Radeon RX 5600

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 5600, which features a clock speed of 1375 MHz and a GDDR6 memory frequency of 12000 MHz. It also makes use of a 192-bit bus, and makes use of a 7 nm design. It is made up of 2048 SPUs, 128 Texture Address Units, and 64 ROPs.

Radeon RX 5600		176000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 37360 (21%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 will be much (more or less 106%) better at full screen anti-aliasing than the GeForce GTX Titan Black, and able to handle higher screen resolutions more effectively. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600		88000 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX Titan Black		42672 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 45328 (106%)

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 (in units of MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface in one second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total amount of 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 in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card could possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
