Nvidia Titan Xp vs Radeon RX 6800

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 6800, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 1700 MHz. The GDDR6 memory works at a speed of 2000 MHz on this specific model. It features 3840 SPUs along with 240 Texture Address Units and 96 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Both cards have the same power consumption.

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the Nvidia Titan Xp should be a bit faster than the Radeon RX 6800 in general. (explain)

Nvidia Titan Xp		560845 MB/sec
Radeon RX 6800		524288 MB/sec
	Difference: 36557 (7%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6800 should be a bit (about 7%) more effective at AF than the Nvidia Titan Xp. (explain)

Radeon RX 6800		408000 Mtexels/sec
Nvidia Titan Xp		379680 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 28320 (7%)

Pixel Rate

If running with a high screen resolution is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6800 is superior to the Nvidia Titan Xp, though not by far. (explain)

Radeon RX 6800		163200 Mpixels/sec
Nvidia Titan Xp		151872 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 11328 (7%)

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 (counted in MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface within a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. 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 better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high 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 number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the card's 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 also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
