GeForce GTX 650 Ti vs Radeon RX 6600

Intro

Compare those specs to the Radeon RX 6600, which features a clock speed of 1626 MHz and a GDDR6 memory speed of 1750 MHz. It also makes use of a 128-bit memory bus, and uses a 7 nm design. It is comprised of 1792 SPUs, 112 Texture Address Units, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

GeForce GTX 650 Ti		86400 MB/sec
	Difference: 142976 (165%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6600 will be a lot (approximately 207%) more effective at AF than the GeForce GTX 650 Ti. (explain)

Radeon RX 6600		182112 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 650 Ti		59392 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 122720 (207%)

Pixel Rate

If running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6600 is a better choice, by a large margin. (explain)

Radeon RX 6600		104064 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 650 Ti		14848 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 89216 (601%)

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 maximum amount of information (counted in MB per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface within a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the video 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 number 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 also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
