Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the GeForce RTX 3060 will be 947% quicker than the Radeon R9 M375 overall, because of its greater bandwidth. (explain)

GeForce RTX 3060		368640 MB/sec
Radeon R9 M375		35200 MB/sec
	Difference: 333440 (947%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 3060 should be much (about 264%) better at texture filtering than the Radeon R9 M375. (explain)

GeForce RTX 3060		147840 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R9 M375		40600 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 107240 (264%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce RTX 3060 should be much (approximately 290%) more effective at full screen anti-aliasing than the Radeon R9 M375, and also should be capable of handling higher resolutions better. (explain)

GeForce RTX 3060		63360 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R9 M375		16240 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 47120 (290%)

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 megabytes per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface within a second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics card could possibly write to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
