Nvidia Titan Xp vs Radeon RX 6650 XT

Intro

Compare those specs to the Radeon RX 6650 XT, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has set the core speed at 2055 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM is set to run at a speed of 2190 MHz on this card. It features 2048 SPUs along with 128 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 6650 XT		176 Watts
Nvidia Titan Xp		250 Watts
	Difference: 74 Watts (42%)

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the Nvidia Titan Xp should perform a lot faster than the Radeon RX 6650 XT in general. (explain)

Nvidia Titan Xp		560845 MB/sec
Radeon RX 6650 XT		287072 MB/sec
	Difference: 273773 (95%)

Texel Rate

The Nvidia Titan Xp should be much (approximately 44%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon RX 6650 XT. (explain)

Nvidia Titan Xp		379680 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 6650 XT		263040 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 116640 (44%)

Pixel Rate

The Nvidia Titan Xp is just a bit (approximately 15%) faster with regards to FSAA than the Radeon RX 6650 XT, and should be capable of handling higher screen resolutions without losing too much performance. (explain)

Nvidia Titan Xp		151872 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 6650 XT		131520 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 20352 (15%)

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: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in one second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR RAM, it 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 higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the video 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 most pixels the graphics card could possibly write to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
