GeForce GTX 560 vs Radeon RX 6750 XT

Intro

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

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce GTX 560		150 Watts
Radeon RX 6750 XT		250 Watts
	Difference: 100 Watts (67%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Radeon RX 6750 XT will be 245% quicker than the GeForce GTX 560 in general, because of its greater bandwidth. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		442368 MB/sec
GeForce GTX 560		128128 MB/sec
	Difference: 314240 (245%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6750 XT will be quite a bit (about 658%) more effective at AF than the GeForce GTX 560. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		344000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 560		45360 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 298640 (658%)

Pixel Rate

If using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6750 XT is the winner, by a large margin. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		137600 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 560		25920 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 111680 (431%)

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 largest amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in a second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster 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 texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second.

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