GeForce 810M vs GeForce RTX 3060

Intro

Compare those specifications to the GeForce RTX 3060, which comes with core speeds of 1320 MHz on the GPU, and 1875 MHz on the (Unknown) MB of GDDR6 memory. It features 3584 SPUs as well as 112 TAUs and 48 Rasterization Operator Units.

Pixel Rate

If using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce RTX 3060 is a better choice, by a large margin. (explain)

GeForce RTX 3060		63360 Mpixels/sec
GeForce 810M		2952 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 60408 (2046%)

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 (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface within a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics card can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
