GeForce GTX 1650 vs Radeon RX 5700 XT

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 5700 XT, which features GPU clock speed of 1605 MHz, and 8096 MB of GDDR6 RAM set to run at 1750 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also is comprised of 2560 Stream Processors, 160 TAUs, and 64 ROPs.

GeForce GTX 1650		131072 MB/sec
	Difference: 327680 (250%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 5700 XT is much (more or less 209%) more effective at texture filtering than the GeForce GTX 1650. (explain)

Radeon RX 5700 XT		256800 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 1650		83160 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 173640 (209%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 5700 XT is quite a bit (about 116%) faster with regards to anti-aliasing than the GeForce GTX 1650, and also able to handle higher resolutions without slowing down too much. (explain)

Radeon RX 5700 XT		102720 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 1650		47520 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 55200 (116%)

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 transported past the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

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

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