GeForce RTX 2060 Super vs Radeon RX 6800 XT

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 6800 XT, which comes with core speeds of 1825 MHz on the GPU, and 2000 MHz on the 16384 MB of GDDR6 RAM. It features 4608 SPUs as well as 288 Texture Address Units and 128 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce RTX 2060 Super		175 Watts
Radeon RX 6800 XT		300 Watts
	Difference: 125 Watts (71%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Radeon RX 6800 XT will be 14% faster than the GeForce RTX 2060 Super in general, because of its higher data rate. (explain)

Radeon RX 6800 XT		524288 MB/sec
GeForce RTX 2060 Super		458752 MB/sec
	Difference: 65536 (14%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6800 XT will be a lot (about 163%) faster with regards to anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 2060 Super. (explain)

Radeon RX 6800 XT		525600 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2060 Super		199920 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 325680 (163%)

Pixel Rate

If using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6800 XT is a better choice, by far. (explain)

Radeon RX 6800 XT		233600 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 2060 Super		94080 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 139520 (148%)

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 data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface in a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are 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 higher this number, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the video card can possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines 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 rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
