Nvidia Titan Xp vs Radeon RX 560

Intro

Compare that to the Radeon RX 560, which comes with core speeds of 1175 MHz on the GPU, and 1750 MHz on the 4096 MB of GDDR5 RAM. It features 1024 SPUs along with 64 TAUs and 16 ROPs.

Nvidia Titan Xp		379680 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 560		75200 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 304480 (405%)

Pixel Rate

The Nvidia Titan Xp should be much (about 708%) faster with regards to FSAA than the Radeon RX 560, and also will be capable of handling higher screen resolutions without slowing down too much. (explain)

Nvidia Titan Xp		151872 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 560		18800 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 133072 (708%)

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 largest amount of information (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core clock 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 in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics card can possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as 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 reach the maximum fill rate.
