Nvidia Titan Xp vs Radeon RX 6900 XT

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 6900 XT, which comes with core clock speeds of 1825 MHz on the GPU, and 2000 MHz on the 16384 MB of GDDR6 RAM. It features 5120 SPUs as well as 320 TAUs and 128 Rasterization Operator Units.

Radeon RX 6900 XT		524288 MB/sec
	Difference: 36557 (7%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6900 XT will be much (more or less 54%) better at texture filtering than the Nvidia Titan Xp. (explain)

Radeon RX 6900 XT		584000 Mtexels/sec
Nvidia Titan Xp		379680 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 204320 (54%)

Pixel Rate

If using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6900 XT is a better choice, by a large margin. (explain)

Radeon RX 6900 XT		233600 Mpixels/sec
Nvidia Titan Xp		151872 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 81728 (54%)

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 data (in units of MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in one second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher 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 number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card can possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel fill rate also depends on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
