GeForce GTX 1650 vs Radeon RX 5600 XT

Intro

Compare that to the Radeon RX 5600 XT, which comes with a clock speed of 1375 MHz and a GDDR6 memory frequency of 1500 MHz. It also features a 192-bit bus, and makes use of a 7 nm design. It is made up of 2304 SPUs, 144 TAUs, and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GTX 1650		75 Watts
Radeon RX 5600 XT		160 Watts
	Difference: 85 Watts (113%)

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the Radeon RX 5600 XT will be 163% faster than the GeForce GTX 1650 in general, due to its higher bandwidth. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		344064 MB/sec
GeForce GTX 1650		131072 MB/sec
	Difference: 212992 (163%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 XT is much (about 138%) more effective at texture filtering than the GeForce GTX 1650. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		198000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 1650		83160 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 114840 (138%)

Pixel Rate

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

Radeon RX 5600 XT		88000 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 1650		47520 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 40480 (85%)

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 data (in units of MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in one second. It's calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the 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 number of pixels that the graphics card could 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 Render Output Units by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
