GeForce 930M vs Radeon RX 6650 XT

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 6650 XT, which uses a 7 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 2055 MHz. The GDDR6 memory is set to run at a frequency of 2190 MHz on this model. It features 2048 SPUs along with 128 Texture Address Units and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically, the Radeon RX 6650 XT should be a lot faster than the GeForce 930M in general. (explain)

Radeon RX 6650 XT		287072 MB/sec
GeForce 930M		14400 MB/sec
	Difference: 272672 (1894%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6650 XT should be much (more or less 1081%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce 930M. (explain)

Radeon RX 6650 XT		263040 Mtexels/sec
GeForce 930M		22272 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 240768 (1081%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 6650 XT is a lot (approximately 1672%) faster with regards to AA than the GeForce 930M, and should be able to handle higher resolutions more effectively. (explain)

Radeon RX 6650 XT		131520 Mpixels/sec
GeForce 930M		7424 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 124096 (1672%)

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 maximum amount of information (measured in MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type memory, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock 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 in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics card could possibly write to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the clock 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 fill rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
