GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 vs Radeon RX 6500 XT

Intro

The GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 uses a 40 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core speed at 732 MHz. The GDDR5 memory works at a speed of 900 MHz on this specific model. It features 448 SPUs as well as 56 Texture Address Units and 40 ROPs.

Compare all that to the Radeon RX 6500 XT, which has a core clock speed of 2200 MHz and a GDDR6 memory speed of 2250 MHz. It also features a 64-bit bus, and uses a 6 nm design. It is made up of 1024 SPUs, 64 TAUs, and 32 Raster Operation Units.

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the max amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics 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 number of pixels the graphics card could possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
