Geforce GTX 760 vs Radeon RX 6600

Intro

Compare all that to the Radeon RX 6600, which features GPU core speed of 1626 MHz, and 8192 MB of GDDR6 RAM running at 1750 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also features 1792 SPUs, 112 Texture Address Units, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 6600		132 Watts
Geforce GTX 760		170 Watts
	Difference: 38 Watts (29%)

Memory Bandwidth

Performance-wise, the Radeon RX 6600 should in theory be a small bit superior to the Geforce GTX 760 in general. (explain)

Radeon RX 6600		229376 MB/sec
Geforce GTX 760		192256 MB/sec
	Difference: 37120 (19%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6600 should be much (more or less 94%) more effective at AF than the Geforce GTX 760. (explain)

Radeon RX 6600		182112 Mtexels/sec
Geforce GTX 760		94080 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 88032 (94%)

Pixel Rate

If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6600 is a better choice, by far. (explain)

Radeon RX 6600		104064 Mpixels/sec
Geforce GTX 760		31360 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 72704 (232%)

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 data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster 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 processed per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the video card could possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate is also dependant on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
