GeForce RTX 2060 Super vs Radeon R9 M395X

Intro

Compare that to the Radeon R9 M395X, which has a GPU core clock speed of 723 MHz, and 4096 MB of GDDR5 memory running at 1250 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also is comprised of 2048 Stream Processors, 128 TAUs, and 32 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon R9 M395X		125 Watts
GeForce RTX 2060 Super		175 Watts
	Difference: 50 Watts (40%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the GeForce RTX 2060 Super should be 187% quicker than the Radeon R9 M395X in general, because of its higher data rate. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2060 Super		458752 MB/sec
Radeon R9 M395X		160000 MB/sec
	Difference: 298752 (187%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2060 Super will be quite a bit (about 116%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon R9 M395X. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2060 Super		199920 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R9 M395X		92544 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 107376 (116%)

Pixel Rate

If using high levels of AA is important to you, then the GeForce RTX 2060 Super is a better choice, and very much so. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2060 Super		94080 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R9 M395X		23136 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 70944 (307%)

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 MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses 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 higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip can possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the the card's clock speed. 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 rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
