Nvidia Titan X vs Radeon RX 6600

Intro

Compare that to the Radeon RX 6600, which comes with clock speeds of 1626 MHz on the GPU, and 1750 MHz on the 8192 MB of GDDR6 RAM. It features 1792 SPUs as well as 112 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 6600		132 Watts
Nvidia Titan X		250 Watts
	Difference: 118 Watts (89%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Nvidia Titan X should perform much faster than the Radeon RX 6600 in general. (explain)

Nvidia Titan X		491520 MB/sec
Radeon RX 6600		229376 MB/sec
	Difference: 262144 (114%)

Texel Rate

The Nvidia Titan X is quite a bit (more or less 74%) faster with regards to AF than the Radeon RX 6600. (explain)

Nvidia Titan X		317408 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 6600		182112 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 135296 (74%)

Pixel Rate

If using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Nvidia Titan X is a better choice, by a large margin. (explain)

Nvidia Titan X		136032 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 6600		104064 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 31968 (31%)

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 largest amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface in a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total 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 applied in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly write to its 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 speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
