GeForce GTX Titan X vs Radeon RX 5600

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 5600, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has set the core speed at 1375 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM works at a frequency of 1500 MHz on this specific model. It features 2048 SPUs along with 128 Texture Address Units and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 5600		150 Watts
GeForce GTX Titan X		250 Watts
	Difference: 100 Watts (67%)

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the GeForce GTX Titan X should be a small bit faster than the Radeon RX 5600 overall. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		336000 MB/sec
Radeon RX 5600		294912 MB/sec
	Difference: 41088 (14%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX Titan X is a little bit (more or less 9%) more effective at texture filtering than the Radeon RX 5600. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		192000 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 5600		176000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 16000 (9%)

Pixel Rate

If running with a high resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX Titan X is the winner, but it probably won't make a huge difference. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		96000 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 5600		88000 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 8000 (9%)

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: Memory bandwidth is the max amount of information (measured in MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in a second. It's calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the better 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This is worked out by multiplying the total amount of 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 per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card could possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
