Radeon R7 370 4G vs Radeon RX 5600 XT

Intro

The Radeon R7 370 4G comes with a GPU core clock speed of 975 MHz, and the 4096 MB of GDDR5 RAM runs at 1400 MHz through a 256-bit bus. It also is comprised of 1024 SPUs, 64 Texture Address Units, and 32 ROPs.

Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 5600 XT, which comes with GPU core speed of 1375 MHz, and 6144 MB of GDDR6 RAM set to run at 1500 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also is made up of 2304 Stream Processors, 144 TAUs, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Radeon R7 370 4G 179200 MB/sec
Difference: 164864 (92%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 XT is much (about 217%) better at texture filtering than the Radeon R7 370 4G. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600 XT 198000 Mtexels/sec
Radeon R7 370 4G 62400 Mtexels/sec
Difference: 135600 (217%)

Pixel Rate

If using high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon RX 5600 XT is a better choice, by far. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600 XT 88000 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R7 370 4G 31200 Mpixels/sec
Difference: 56800 (182%)

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.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the max amount of information (measured in MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface within a second. It's calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are processed per 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 higher this number, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the graphics card could possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
