Radeon RX 590 vs Radeon RX 6750 XT

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 6750 XT, which features core clock speeds of 2150 MHz on the GPU, and 2250 MHz on the 12288 MB of GDDR6 RAM. It features 2560 SPUs as well as 160 TAUs and 64 ROPs.

Radeon RX 590		262144 MB/sec
	Difference: 180224 (69%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6750 XT is quite a bit (more or less 63%) better at AF than the Radeon RX 590. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		344000 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 590		211536 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 132464 (63%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 6750 XT is quite a bit (approximately 193%) better at anti-aliasing than the Radeon RX 590, and also should be able to handle higher screen resolutions without losing too much performance. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		137600 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 590		47008 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 90592 (193%)

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 max amount of information (in units of MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. 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 processed 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 video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the amount of ROPs 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 output rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
