GeForce RTX 3060 vs Radeon RX 6750 XT

Intro

Compare those specs to the Radeon RX 6750 XT, which comes with GPU clock speed of 2150 MHz, and 12288 MB of GDDR6 RAM set to run at 2250 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also is made up of 2560 Stream Processors, 160 Texture Address Units, and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce RTX 3060		170 Watts
Radeon RX 6750 XT		250 Watts
	Difference: 80 Watts (47%)

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the Radeon RX 6750 XT is 20% quicker than the GeForce RTX 3060 in general, due to its higher data rate. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		442368 MB/sec
GeForce RTX 3060		368640 MB/sec
	Difference: 73728 (20%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6750 XT will be a lot (more or less 133%) faster with regards to anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 3060. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		344000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 3060		147840 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 196160 (133%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 6750 XT will be quite a bit (more or less 117%) more effective at AA than the GeForce RTX 3060, and will be able to handle higher screen resolutions more effectively. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		137600 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 3060		63360 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 74240 (117%)

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 maximum amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the graphics card can possibly write to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
