GeForce GTX Titan Black vs GeForce RTX 3060

Intro

Compare all of that to the GeForce RTX 3060, which features GPU clock speed of 1320 MHz, and (Unknown) MB of GDDR6 memory running at 1875 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also is made up of 3584 Stream Processors, 112 TAUs, and 48 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce RTX 3060		170 Watts
GeForce GTX Titan Black		250 Watts
	Difference: 80 Watts (47%)

Memory Bandwidth

The GeForce RTX 3060, in theory, should perform a small bit faster than the GeForce GTX Titan Black in general. (explain)

GeForce RTX 3060		368640 MB/sec
GeForce GTX Titan Black		336000 MB/sec
	Difference: 32640 (10%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX Titan Black should be quite a bit (more or less 44%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 3060. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan Black		213360 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 3060		147840 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 65520 (44%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce RTX 3060 is a lot (approximately 48%) faster with regards to AA than the GeForce GTX Titan Black, and should be able to handle higher screen resolutions better. (explain)

GeForce RTX 3060		63360 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX Titan Black		42672 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 20688 (48%)

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 max amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, 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 texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better 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 per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
