GeForce GTX Titan vs Radeon RX 5600 XT

Intro

Compare all that to the Radeon RX 5600 XT, which has a GPU core clock speed of 1375 MHz, and 6144 MB of GDDR6 RAM running at 1500 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also is made up of 2304 SPUs, 144 TAUs, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		160 Watts
GeForce GTX Titan		250 Watts
	Difference: 90 Watts (56%)

Memory Bandwidth

Performance-wise, the Radeon RX 5600 XT should theoretically be just a bit superior to the GeForce GTX Titan overall. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		344064 MB/sec
GeForce GTX Titan		288384 MB/sec
	Difference: 55680 (19%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 XT should be a bit (approximately 6%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the GeForce GTX Titan. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		198000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX Titan		187488 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 10512 (6%)

Pixel Rate

If running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon RX 5600 XT is the winner, by a large margin. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		88000 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX Titan		40176 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 47824 (119%)

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 largest amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics card can possibly write to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated 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 also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
