GeForce RTX 3050 vs Radeon HD 6750

Intro

Compare all that to the Radeon HD 6750, which uses a 40 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 725 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM works at a frequency of 1000 MHz on this particular card. It features 720 SPUs as well as 36 Texture Address Units and 16 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon HD 6750		86 Watts
GeForce RTX 3050		130 Watts
	Difference: 44 Watts (51%)

Memory Bandwidth

As far as performance goes, the GeForce RTX 3050 should in theory be a lot superior to the Radeon HD 6750 in general. (explain)

GeForce RTX 3050		229376 MB/sec
Radeon HD 6750		64000 MB/sec
	Difference: 165376 (258%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 3050 will be quite a bit (more or less 376%) more effective at AF than the Radeon HD 6750. (explain)

GeForce RTX 3050		124160 Mtexels/sec
Radeon HD 6750		26100 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 98060 (376%)

Pixel Rate

If running with a high screen resolution is important to you, then the GeForce RTX 3050 is the winner, and very much so. (explain)

GeForce RTX 3050		49664 Mpixels/sec
Radeon HD 6750		11600 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 38064 (328%)

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 data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface within a second. The number is calculated by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better 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 per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics card could possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output 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.
