GeForce RTX 2080 Ti vs Radeon RX 6700 XT

Intro

Compare that to the Radeon RX 6700 XT, which comes with GPU core speed of 2321 MHz, and (Unknown) MB of GDDR6 RAM set to run at 2000 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also features 2560 SPUs, 160 Texture Address Units, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Radeon RX 6700 XT		393216 MB/sec
	Difference: 237568 (60%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6700 XT is just a bit (approximately 1%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti. (explain)

Radeon RX 6700 XT		371360 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 Ti		367200 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 4160 (1%)

Pixel Rate

If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6700 XT is superior to the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, and very much so. (explain)

Radeon RX 6700 XT		148544 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 Ti		118800 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 29744 (25%)

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 max amount of information (in units of MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in one second. The number is calculated by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the bandwidth is, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card could possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of ROPs by the clock 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 bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
