GeForce GTX 570 vs GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER

Intro

Compare all of that to the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER, which has a core clock frequency of 1650 MHz and a GDDR6 memory frequency of 1937 MHz. It also makes use of a 256-bit bus, and makes use of a 12 nm design. It is comprised of 3072 SPUs, 192 TAUs, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GTX 570		219 Watts
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		250 Watts
	Difference: 31 Watts (14%)

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER will be 234% quicker than the GeForce GTX 570 overall, because of its higher data rate. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		507904 MB/sec
GeForce GTX 570		152000 MB/sec
	Difference: 355904 (234%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER will be much (about 621%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the GeForce GTX 570. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		316800 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 570		43920 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 272880 (621%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is quite a bit (more or less 261%) better at AA than the GeForce GTX 570, and should be capable of handling higher screen resolutions better. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		105600 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 570		29280 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 76320 (261%)

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 max amount of information (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR RAM, 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total amount 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 processed per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the graphics card could possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the clock 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 fill rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
