GeForce GT 430 (OEM) vs Radeon RX 5600

Intro

Compare that to the Radeon RX 5600, which features clock speeds of 1375 MHz on the GPU, and 1500 MHz on the 6144 MB of GDDR6 memory. It features 2048 SPUs as well as 128 TAUs and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GT 430 (OEM)		60 Watts
Radeon RX 5600		150 Watts
	Difference: 90 Watts (150%)

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the Radeon RX 5600 should be 924% quicker than the GeForce GT 430 (OEM) overall, because of its higher bandwidth. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600		294912 MB/sec
GeForce GT 430 (OEM)		28800 MB/sec
	Difference: 266112 (924%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 will be a lot (about 1471%) faster with regards to AF than the GeForce GT 430 (OEM). (explain)

Radeon RX 5600		176000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GT 430 (OEM)		11200 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 164800 (1471%)

Pixel Rate

If using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon RX 5600 is the winner, and very much so. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600		88000 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GT 430 (OEM)		2800 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 85200 (3043%)

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 moved over the external memory interface in a second. It's worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type memory, it must 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 anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the video card can possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka 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 bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
