Radeon RX 6750 XT vs Radeon VII

Intro

Compare those specs to the Radeon VII, which has a clock frequency of 1400 MHz and a HBM2 memory speed of 1000 MHz. It also uses a 4096-bit memory bus, and uses a 7 nm design. It is comprised of 3840 SPUs, 240 Texture Address Units, and 64 Raster Operation Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		250 Watts
Radeon VII		295 Watts
	Difference: 45 Watts (18%)

Memory Bandwidth

In theory, the Radeon VII should perform a lot faster than the Radeon RX 6750 XT overall. (explain)

Radeon VII		1048576 MB/sec
Radeon RX 6750 XT		442368 MB/sec
	Difference: 606208 (137%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6750 XT should be a bit (approximately 2%) faster with regards to anisotropic filtering than the Radeon VII. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		344000 Mtexels/sec
Radeon VII		336000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 8000 (2%)

Pixel Rate

If running with lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6750 XT is a better choice, by far. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		137600 Mpixels/sec
Radeon VII		89600 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 48000 (54%)

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 maximum amount of information (in units of MB per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface in a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per 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 figure is calculated by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
