GeForce 810M vs GeForce RTX 3060

Intro

The GeForce 810M has a clock speed of 738 MHz and a DDR3 memory frequency of 900 MHz. It also features a 64-bit bus, and uses a 28 nm design. It features 48 SPUs, 8 TAUs, and 4 ROPs.

Compare all of that to the GeForce RTX 3060, which comes with GPU core speed of 1320 MHz, and (Unknown) MB of GDDR6 RAM set to run at 1875 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also features 3584 SPUs, 112 TAUs, and 48 Raster Operation Units.

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred across the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR type memory, the result 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 higher screen resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics card could possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate also depends on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
