GeForce GTX 1650 vs Radeon RX 560

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 560, which features GPU clock speed of 1175 MHz, and 4096 MB of GDDR5 RAM set to run at 1750 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is made up of 1024 SPUs, 64 Texture Address Units, and 16 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GTX 1650		75 Watts
Radeon RX 560		80 Watts
	Difference: 5 Watts (7%)

Memory Bandwidth

The GeForce GTX 1650 should in theory perform a bit faster than the Radeon RX 560 overall. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		131072 MB/sec
Radeon RX 560		114688 MB/sec
	Difference: 16384 (14%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1650 should be just a bit (approximately 11%) faster with regards to anisotropic filtering than the Radeon RX 560. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		83160 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 560		75200 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 7960 (11%)

Pixel Rate

If running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 1650 is the winner, by far. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		47520 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 560		18800 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 28720 (153%)

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 maximum amount of information (in units of MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the 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 that the graphics chip can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
