GeForce RTX 2060 vs Radeon R9 Fury X

Intro

Compare those specs to the Radeon R9 Fury X, which comes with a core clock frequency of 1050 MHz and a HBM memory speed of 500 MHz. It also features a 4096-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 28 nm design. It features 4096 SPUs, 256 Texture Address Units, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce RTX 2060		160 Watts
Radeon R9 Fury X		275 Watts
	Difference: 115 Watts (72%)

Memory Bandwidth

The Radeon R9 Fury X, in theory, should be quite a bit faster than the GeForce RTX 2060 in general. (explain)

Radeon R9 Fury X		512000 MB/sec
GeForce RTX 2060		344064 MB/sec
	Difference: 167936 (49%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon R9 Fury X is much (more or less 64%) better at texture filtering than the GeForce RTX 2060. (explain)

Radeon R9 Fury X		268800 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2060		163800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 105000 (64%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon R9 Fury X is just a bit (more or less 3%) more effective at AA than the GeForce RTX 2060, and will be able to handle higher resolutions without losing too much performance. (explain)

Radeon R9 Fury X		67200 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 2060		65520 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 1680 (3%)

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 information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. 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 can be processed in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels per second.

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