Radeon RX 6750 XT vs Radeon Vega Frontier Edition

Intro

Compare that to the Radeon Vega Frontier Edition, which makes use of a 14 nm design. AMD has set the core speed at 1382 MHz. The HBM2 memory is set to run at a speed of 1890 MHz on this particular model. It features 4096 SPUs as well as 256 Texture Address Units and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		250 Watts
Radeon Vega Frontier Edition		300 Watts
	Difference: 50 Watts (20%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Radeon Vega Frontier Edition should be 12% faster than the Radeon RX 6750 XT overall, due to its greater data rate. (explain)

Radeon Vega Frontier Edition		495452 MB/sec
Radeon RX 6750 XT		442368 MB/sec
	Difference: 53084 (12%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon Vega Frontier Edition is a bit (about 3%) more effective at anisotropic filtering than the Radeon RX 6750 XT. (explain)

Radeon Vega Frontier Edition		353792 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 6750 XT		344000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 9792 (3%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 6750 XT should be quite a bit (approximately 56%) faster with regards to anti-aliasing than the Radeon Vega Frontier Edition, and capable of handling higher screen resolutions while still performing well. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		137600 Mpixels/sec
Radeon Vega Frontier Edition		88448 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 49152 (56%)

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 data (measured in MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR type memory, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the better 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 can be processed in one second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the 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 the video card could possibly write to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill 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.
