GeForce GTX 560 Ti vs GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER

Intro

Compare all of that to the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER, which comes with a core clock speed of 1650 MHz and a GDDR6 memory speed of 1937 MHz. It also uses a 256-bit bus, and uses a 12 nm design. It features 3072 SPUs, 192 TAUs, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GTX 560 Ti		170 Watts
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		250 Watts
	Difference: 80 Watts (47%)

Memory Bandwidth

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER, in theory, should perform a lot faster than the GeForce GTX 560 Ti in general. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		507904 MB/sec
GeForce GTX 560 Ti		128256 MB/sec
	Difference: 379648 (296%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER should be quite a bit (approximately 502%) better at AF than the GeForce GTX 560 Ti. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		316800 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 560 Ti		52608 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 264192 (502%)

Pixel Rate

If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is superior to the GeForce GTX 560 Ti, by far. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		105600 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 560 Ti		26304 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 79296 (301%)

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 (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface in a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, 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 that the graphics chip can possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour 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 is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
