Nvidia Titan X vs Radeon RX 6800
Intro
The Nvidia Titan X makes use of a 16 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core frequency at 1417 MHz. The GDDR5X memory is set to run at a frequency of 1251 MHz on this particular model. It features 3584 SPUs along with 224 Texture Address Units and 96 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 6800, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has set the core speed at 1700 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM runs at a speed of 2000 MHz on this particular model. It features 3840 SPUs as well as 240 TAUs and 96 Rasterization Operator Units.
Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks
Both cards have the same power consumption.Memory Bandwidth
Theoretically speaking, the Radeon RX 6800 will be 7% faster than the Nvidia Titan X in general, due to its greater bandwidth. (explain)

Texel Rate
The Radeon RX 6800 will be quite a bit (more or less 29%) better at texture filtering than the Nvidia Titan X. (explain)| Radeon RX 6800 |

Pixel Rate
If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6800 is a better choice, but it probably won't make a huge difference. (explain)| Radeon RX 6800 |

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the max amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, 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 texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels per second.
Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card can possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
