Geforce GTX 760 vs Radeon RX 6600

Intro

Compare all that to the Radeon RX 6600, which has a GPU core clock speed of 1626 MHz, and 8192 MB of GDDR6 memory set to run at 1750 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is made up of 1792 Stream Processors, 112 TAUs, and 64 ROPs.

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

As far as performance goes, 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 will be a lot (more or less 94%) better 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 will be much (approximately 232%) more effective at full screen anti-aliasing than the Geforce GTX 760, and should be capable of handling higher resolutions more effectively. (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 (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred across the external memory interface in a second. It's calculated by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
