GeForce GTX 750 vs GeForce RTX 3060

Intro

The GeForce GTX 750 has a clock frequency of 1020 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1250 MHz. It also uses a 128-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 28 nm design. It is made up of 512 SPUs, 32 TAUs, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

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

GeForce GTX 750 80000 MB/sec
Difference: 288640 (361%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 3060 is a lot (about 353%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the GeForce GTX 750. (explain)

GeForce RTX 3060 147840 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 750 32640 Mtexels/sec
Difference: 115200 (353%)

Pixel Rate

If using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce RTX 3060 is a better choice, by far. (explain)

GeForce RTX 3060 63360 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 750 16320 Mpixels/sec
Difference: 47040 (288%)

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.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface in a second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 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 can be processed per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the 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 most pixels the graphics card can possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
