Geforce GTX 760 vs Radeon RX 5600 XT

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 5600 XT, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 1375 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM is set to run at a speed of 1500 MHz on this model. It features 2304 SPUs as well as 144 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		160 Watts
Geforce GTX 760		170 Watts
	Difference: 10 Watts (6%)

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the Radeon RX 5600 XT should be much faster than the Geforce GTX 760 overall. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		344064 MB/sec
Geforce GTX 760		192256 MB/sec
	Difference: 151808 (79%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 XT will be quite a bit (more or less 110%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Geforce GTX 760. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		198000 Mtexels/sec
Geforce GTX 760		94080 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 103920 (110%)

Pixel Rate

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

Radeon RX 5600 XT		88000 Mpixels/sec
Geforce GTX 760		31360 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 56640 (181%)

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 (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the video 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 most pixels that the graphics chip could possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the number 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 output rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
