GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 vs Radeon RX 5600

Intro

Compare all that to the Radeon RX 5600, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 1375 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM runs at a frequency of 1500 MHz on this particular model. It features 2048 SPUs along with 128 TAUs and 64 ROPs.

	Difference: 150912 (105%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 should be a lot (about 329%) more effective at AF than the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600		176000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448		40992 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 135008 (329%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 should be quite a bit (about 201%) faster with regards to AA than the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448, and also able to handle higher screen resolutions more effectively. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600		88000 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448		29280 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 58720 (201%)

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 information (in units of MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. In the case of DDR type memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. 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 are applied per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the video 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 amount of Render Output Units by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
