Nvidia Titan X vs Radeon RX 6900 XT

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 6900 XT, which uses a 7 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 1825 MHz. The GDDR6 memory is set to run at a frequency of 2000 MHz on this specific model. It features 5120 SPUs as well as 320 TAUs and 128 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

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

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Radeon RX 6900 XT should perform 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 quite a bit (more or less 84%) better at texture filtering 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 using a high resolution is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6900 XT is a better choice, 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: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in a second. It's worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This figure 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 graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card could possibly record to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate also depends on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
