Geforce GTX 760 vs Radeon RX 5600

Intro

Compare those specs to the Radeon RX 5600, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has set the core speed at 1375 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM works at a speed of 1500 MHz on this specific model. It features 2048 SPUs as well as 128 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Geforce GTX 760		94080 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 81920 (87%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 will be quite a bit (approximately 181%) more effective at FSAA than the Geforce GTX 760, and able to handle higher resolutions while still performing well. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600		88000 Mpixels/sec
Geforce GTX 760		31360 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 56640 (181%)

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 maximum amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in one second. The number is calculated by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the card's memory bandwidth, 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 can be applied per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, 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 amount of pixels the video card could possibly write to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
