Geforce GTX 760 vs Radeon RX 6900 XT

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 6900 XT, which comes with a clock speed of 1825 MHz and a GDDR6 memory speed of 2000 MHz. It also features a 256-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 7 nm design. It is comprised of 5120 SPUs, 320 Texture Address Units, and 128 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Geforce GTX 760		170 Watts
Radeon RX 6900 XT		300 Watts
	Difference: 130 Watts (76%)

Memory Bandwidth

The Radeon RX 6900 XT should theoretically be a lot faster than the Geforce GTX 760 overall. (explain)

Radeon RX 6900 XT		524288 MB/sec
Geforce GTX 760		192256 MB/sec
	Difference: 332032 (173%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6900 XT should be quite a bit (more or less 521%) better at texture filtering than the Geforce GTX 760. (explain)

Radeon RX 6900 XT		584000 Mtexels/sec
Geforce GTX 760		94080 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 489920 (521%)

Pixel Rate

If running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6900 XT is a better choice, and very much so. (explain)

Radeon RX 6900 XT		233600 Mpixels/sec
Geforce GTX 760		31360 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 202240 (645%)

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 max amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics card could 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 ROPs by the the core speed of the card. 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 fill rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
