Nvidia Titan X		250 Watts
Radeon RX 6900 XT		300 Watts
	Difference: 50 Watts (20%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically, the Radeon RX 6900 XT should perform just a bit faster than the Nvidia Titan X overall. (explain)

Radeon RX 6900 XT		524288 MB/sec
Nvidia Titan X		491520 MB/sec
	Difference: 32768 (7%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6900 XT should be much (approximately 84%) faster with regards to AF than the Nvidia Titan X. (explain)

Radeon RX 6900 XT		584000 Mtexels/sec
Nvidia Titan X		317408 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 266592 (84%)

Pixel Rate

If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6900 XT is the winner, and very much so. (explain)

Radeon RX 6900 XT		233600 Mpixels/sec
Nvidia Titan X		136032 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 97568 (72%)

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 maximum amount of information (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface within a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics card can possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called 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 memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
