GeForce GTX 580 vs Radeon RX 6750 XT

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 6750 XT, which features a core clock frequency of 2150 MHz and a GDDR6 memory speed of 2250 MHz. It also makes use of a 192-bit bus, and uses a 7 nm design. It features 2560 SPUs, 160 Texture Address Units, and 64 ROPs.

GeForce GTX 580		192384 MB/sec
	Difference: 249984 (130%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6750 XT should be a lot (more or less 596%) faster with regards to AF than the GeForce GTX 580. (explain)

Radeon RX 6750 XT		344000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 580		49408 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 294592 (596%)

Pixel Rate

If using 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
GeForce GTX 580		37056 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 100544 (271%)

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 (in units of MB per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in a second. It's worked out by multiplying the bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, 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 number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This number is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card could possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated 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 also depends on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
