GeForce GTX Titan X vs GeForce RTX 3050

Intro

Compare all of that to the GeForce RTX 3050, which comes with GPU clock speed of 1552 MHz, and 8192 MB of GDDR6 memory set to run at 1750 MHz through a 128-bit bus. It also is comprised of 2560 SPUs, 80 Texture Address Units, and 32 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce RTX 3050		130 Watts
GeForce GTX Titan X		250 Watts
	Difference: 120 Watts (92%)

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the GeForce GTX Titan X is 46% faster than the GeForce RTX 3050 in general, due to its higher bandwidth. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		336000 MB/sec
GeForce RTX 3050		229376 MB/sec
	Difference: 106624 (46%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX Titan X will be a lot (more or less 55%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 3050. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		192000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 3050		124160 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 67840 (55%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce GTX Titan X should be quite a bit (more or less 93%) faster with regards to AA than the GeForce RTX 3050, and also should be able to handle higher screen resolutions more effectively. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		96000 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 3050		49664 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 46336 (93%)

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 information (measured in MB per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface within a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core 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 in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
