Radeon RX 6750 XT		442368 MB/sec
	Difference: 16384 (4%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6750 XT is quite a bit (approximately 63%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon RX 5700. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		344000 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 5700		210960 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 133040 (63%)

Pixel Rate

If running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6750 XT is superior to the Radeon RX 5700, and very much so. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		137600 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 5700		93760 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 43840 (47%)

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 megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total 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 per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip can possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel rate also depends on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
