GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs Radeon Pro Duo

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon Pro Duo, which features GPU clock speed of 1000 MHz, and 4096 MB of HBM memory running at 500 MHz through a 4096-bit bus. It also is made up of 4096 SPUs, 256 Texture Address Units, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		250 Watts
Radeon Pro Duo		350 Watts
	Difference: 100 Watts (40%)

Memory Bandwidth

Performance-wise, the Radeon Pro Duo should theoretically be a lot superior to the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER overall. (explain)

Radeon Pro Duo		1024000 MB/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		507904 MB/sec
	Difference: 516096 (102%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon Pro Duo is quite a bit (about 62%) better at texture filtering than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. (explain)

Radeon Pro Duo		512000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		316800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 195200 (62%)

Pixel Rate

If using a high screen resolution is important to you, then the Radeon Pro Duo is superior to the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER, and very much so. (explain)

Radeon Pro Duo		128000 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		105600 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 22400 (21%)

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.

One or more cards in this comparison are multi-core. This means that their bandwidth, texel and pixel rates are theoretically doubled - this does not mean the card will actually perform twice as fast, but only that it should in theory be able to. Actual game benchmarks will give a more accurate idea of what it's capable of.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the largest amount of data (measured in MB per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, 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 number is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics card could possibly write to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate also depends on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
