GeForce GTX 650 Ti vs Radeon RX 6600 XT

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 6600 XT, which features core speeds of 1968 MHz on the GPU, and 2000 MHz on the 8192 MB of GDDR6 RAM. It features 2048 SPUs along with 128 Texture Address Units and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GTX 650 Ti		110 Watts
Radeon RX 6600 XT		160 Watts
	Difference: 50 Watts (45%)

Memory Bandwidth

Performance-wise, the Radeon RX 6600 XT should in theory be much superior to the GeForce GTX 650 Ti in general. (explain)

Radeon RX 6600 XT		262144 MB/sec
GeForce GTX 650 Ti		86400 MB/sec
	Difference: 175744 (203%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6600 XT is quite a bit (more or less 324%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce GTX 650 Ti. (explain)

Radeon RX 6600 XT		251904 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 650 Ti		59392 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 192512 (324%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 6600 XT is quite a bit (more or less 748%) faster with regards to full screen anti-aliasing than the GeForce GTX 650 Ti, and also should be able to handle higher resolutions without slowing down too much. (explain)

Radeon RX 6600 XT		125952 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 650 Ti		14848 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 111104 (748%)

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 MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface within a second. It's calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, 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 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 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 can possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate also depends on quite a few other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
