GeForce GTX Titan Black vs Radeon RX 6700 XT

Intro

Compare all that to the Radeon RX 6700 XT, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has clocked the core frequency at 2321 MHz. The GDDR6 memory runs at a speed of 2000 MHz on this model. It features 2560 SPUs as well as 160 Texture Address Units and 64 ROPs.

GeForce GTX Titan Black		213360 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 158000 (74%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 6700 XT should be a lot (about 248%) better at full screen anti-aliasing than the GeForce GTX Titan Black, and able to handle higher resolutions while still performing well. (explain)

Radeon RX 6700 XT		148544 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX Titan Black		42672 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 105872 (248%)

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 (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface within a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called 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 of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
