Geforce GTX 690 vs Radeon RX 6750 XT

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 6750 XT, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has set the core speed at 2150 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM runs at a frequency of 2250 MHz on this particular model. It features 2560 SPUs as well as 160 TAUs and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Geforce GTX 690		384512 MB/sec
	Difference: 57856 (15%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6750 XT is quite a bit (more or less 47%) better at AF than the Geforce GTX 690. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		344000 Mtexels/sec
Geforce GTX 690		234240 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 109760 (47%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 6750 XT will be quite a bit (about 135%) better at anti-aliasing than the Geforce GTX 690, and also able to handle higher screen resolutions more effectively. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		137600 Mpixels/sec
Geforce GTX 690		58560 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 79040 (135%)

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.

One or more cards in this comparison are multi-core. This means that their bandwidth, texel and pixel rates are theoretically doubled - this does not mean the card will actually perform twice as fast, but only that it should in theory be able to. Actual game benchmarks will give a more accurate idea of what it's capable of.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred across the external memory interface in a second. It's calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better 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 in one second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total 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 per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to its 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 core 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 also depends on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
