GeForce GTX 1650 vs GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER

Intro

Compare that to the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER, which uses a 12 nm design. nVidia has set the core frequency at 1650 MHz. The GDDR6 memory runs at a frequency of 1937 MHz on this specific model. It features 3072 SPUs as well as 192 TAUs and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

GeForce GTX 1650		131072 MB/sec
	Difference: 376832 (288%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER will be quite a bit (about 281%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX 1650. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		316800 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 1650		83160 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 233640 (281%)

Pixel Rate

If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is the winner, by a large margin. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		105600 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 1650		47520 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 58080 (122%)

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 largest amount of information (in units of MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in one second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant 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 max fill rate.
