GeForce GTX Titan Black vs Radeon RX 5600

Intro

Compare all that to the Radeon RX 5600, which has core speeds of 1375 MHz on the GPU, and 12000 MHz on the 6144 MB of GDDR6 memory. It features 2048 SPUs along with 128 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

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

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 should be a lot (more or less 106%) faster with regards to full screen anti-aliasing than the GeForce GTX Titan Black, and also will be capable of handling higher resolutions better. (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: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of information (measured in MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface within a second. It's worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics 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 maximum number of pixels the video card could possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out 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 filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate also depends 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 maximum fill rate.
