GeForce GTX Titan X vs Radeon RX 5600 XT

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 5600 XT, which features a core clock speed of 1375 MHz and a GDDR6 memory frequency of 1500 MHz. It also makes use of a 192-bit memory bus, and uses 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)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		160 Watts
GeForce GTX Titan X		250 Watts
	Difference: 90 Watts (56%)

Memory Bandwidth

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

Radeon RX 5600 XT		344064 MB/sec
GeForce GTX Titan X		336000 MB/sec
	Difference: 8064 (2%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 XT should be just a bit (approximately 3%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX Titan X. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		198000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX Titan X		192000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 6000 (3%)

Pixel Rate

If using a high screen resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX Titan X is superior to the Radeon RX 5600 XT, but not by far. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		96000 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 5600 XT		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 largest amount of data (in units of MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the faster 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 number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video 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 Raster Operations Pipelines by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
