Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary Edition vs Radeon RX 6750 XT

Intro

Compare those specifications to the Radeon RX 6750 XT, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has set the core speed at 2150 MHz. The GDDR6 memory works at a speed of 2250 MHz on this specific model. It features 2560 SPUs along with 160 Texture Address Units and 64 ROPs.

Radeon RX 6750 XT		250 Watts
	Difference: 15 Watts (6%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically, the Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary Edition should be just a bit faster than the Radeon RX 6750 XT in general. (explain)

Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary Edition		458752 MB/sec
Radeon RX 6750 XT		442368 MB/sec
	Difference: 16384 (4%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6750 XT will be much (approximately 28%) more effective at texture filtering than the Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary Edition. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		344000 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary Edition		268800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 75200 (28%)

Pixel Rate

If running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6750 XT is the winner, and very much so. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		137600 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary Edition		107520 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 30080 (28%)

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 information (counted in MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in one second. It is worked out by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core 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 applied in one second.

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