Geforce GTX 760 vs Radeon RX 6600

Intro

Compare all that to the Radeon RX 6600, which features core clock speeds of 1626 MHz on the GPU, and 1750 MHz on the 8192 MB of GDDR6 RAM. It features 1792 SPUs as well as 112 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Geforce GTX 760		192256 MB/sec
	Difference: 37120 (19%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6600 is quite a bit (more or less 94%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Geforce GTX 760. (explain)

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

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 6600 is much (approximately 232%) better at AA than the Geforce GTX 760, and capable of handling higher resolutions better. (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: Memory bandwidth is the largest amount of information (in units of MB per second) that can be transported past the external memory interface in one second. The number is calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the bandwidth is, the faster 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 are applied in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the 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 that the graphics card could possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the amount of ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
