Nvidia Titan Xp vs Radeon RX 5700 XT

Intro

Compare those specs to the Radeon RX 5700 XT, which uses a 7 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 1605 MHz. The GDDR6 memory works at a speed of 1750 MHz on this card. It features 2560 SPUs along with 160 TAUs and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Radeon RX 5700 XT		458752 MB/sec
	Difference: 102093 (22%)

Texel Rate

The Nvidia Titan Xp is quite a bit (about 48%) better at AF than the Radeon RX 5700 XT. (explain)

Nvidia Titan Xp		379680 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 5700 XT		256800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 122880 (48%)

Pixel Rate

If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Nvidia Titan Xp is a better choice, by a large margin. (explain)

Nvidia Titan Xp		151872 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 5700 XT		102720 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 49152 (48%)

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 data (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface in a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core 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 processed in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card can possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the card's clock speed. 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 many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
