GeForce GTX 1050 Ti vs Radeon RX 6800 XT

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 6800 XT, which has core clock speeds of 1825 MHz on the GPU, and 2000 MHz on the 16384 MB of GDDR6 memory. It features 4608 SPUs as well as 288 Texture Address Units and 128 ROPs.

GeForce GTX 1050 Ti		114688 MB/sec
	Difference: 409600 (357%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6800 XT should be a lot (more or less 749%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti. (explain)

Radeon RX 6800 XT		525600 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 1050 Ti		61920 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 463680 (749%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 6800 XT should be a lot (more or less 466%) more effective at full screen anti-aliasing than the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti, and able to handle higher screen resolutions without losing too much performance. (explain)

Radeon RX 6800 XT		233600 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 1050 Ti		41280 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 192320 (466%)

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 information (counted in MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics 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 chip could possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
