Geforce GTX 770 vs Radeon RX 5600 XT

Intro

Compare all that to the Radeon RX 5600 XT, which comes with core clock speeds of 1375 MHz on the GPU, and 1500 MHz on the 6144 MB of GDDR6 RAM. It features 2304 SPUs as well as 144 TAUs and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		160 Watts
Geforce GTX 770		230 Watts
	Difference: 70 Watts (44%)

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the Radeon RX 5600 XT should be 53% faster than the Geforce GTX 770 overall, because of its greater bandwidth. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		344064 MB/sec
Geforce GTX 770		224384 MB/sec
	Difference: 119680 (53%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 XT is a lot (more or less 48%) better at texture filtering than the Geforce GTX 770. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		198000 Mtexels/sec
Geforce GTX 770		133888 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 64112 (48%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 5600 XT is quite a bit (more or less 163%) faster with regards to anti-aliasing than the Geforce GTX 770, and also able to handle higher screen resolutions without slowing down too much. (explain)

Radeon RX 5600 XT		88000 Mpixels/sec
Geforce GTX 770		33472 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 54528 (163%)

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 maximum amount of information (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface in a second. It's calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed in one second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core clock 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 graphics card could possibly write to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
