GeForce RTX 2060 vs Radeon Pro Duo

Intro

Compare all that to the Radeon Pro Duo, which comes with a core clock frequency of 1000 MHz and a HBM memory frequency of 500 MHz. It also makes use of a 4096-bit memory bus, and uses a 28 nm design. It is made up of 4096 SPUs, 256 TAUs, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce RTX 2060		160 Watts
Radeon Pro Duo		350 Watts
	Difference: 190 Watts (119%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Radeon Pro Duo should be 198% faster than the GeForce RTX 2060 in general, due to its greater bandwidth. (explain)

Radeon Pro Duo		1024000 MB/sec
GeForce RTX 2060		344064 MB/sec
	Difference: 679936 (198%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon Pro Duo is much (about 213%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 2060. (explain)

Radeon Pro Duo		512000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2060		163800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 348200 (213%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon Pro Duo will be a lot (approximately 95%) better at anti-aliasing than the GeForce RTX 2060, and should be able to handle higher screen resolutions without slowing down too much. (explain)

Radeon Pro Duo		128000 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 2060		65520 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 62480 (95%)

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 information (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher 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 applied in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics card could possibly write to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units 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 quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
