GeForce 920M vs Radeon Vega Frontier Edition

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon Vega Frontier Edition, which uses a 14 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 1382 MHz. The HBM2 RAM works at a speed of 1890 MHz on this particular card. It features 4096 SPUs as well as 256 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

GeForce 920M		14400 MB/sec
	Difference: 481052 (3341%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon Vega Frontier Edition will be a lot (approximately 1059%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce 920M. (explain)

Radeon Vega Frontier Edition		353792 Mtexels/sec
GeForce 920M		30528 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 323264 (1059%)

Pixel Rate

If using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon Vega Frontier Edition is the winner, by far. (explain)

Radeon Vega Frontier Edition		88448 Mpixels/sec
GeForce 920M		7632 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 80816 (1059%)

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 (counted in MB per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, 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 are applied in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics card could possibly write to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the max fill rate.
