GeForce RTX 2080 vs Nvidia Titan X

Intro

Compare that to the Nvidia Titan X, which has clock speeds of 1417 MHz on the GPU, and 1251 MHz on the 12288 MB of GDDR5X memory. It features 3584 SPUs as well as 224 Texture Address Units and 96 Rasterization Operator Units.

GeForce RTX 2080		458752 MB/sec
	Difference: 32768 (7%)

Texel Rate

The Nvidia Titan X should be just a bit (approximately 14%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 2080. (explain)

Nvidia Titan X		317408 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080		278760 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 38648 (14%)

Pixel Rate

The Nvidia Titan X should be a lot (approximately 40%) faster with regards to AA than the GeForce RTX 2080, and capable of handling higher screen resolutions without slowing down too much. (explain)

Nvidia Titan X		136032 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080		96960 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 39072 (40%)

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: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type memory, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the bandwidth is, 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 texture map elements (texels) that are processed in one second. This is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second.

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