GeForce RTX 4070 Ti vs Radeon RX 6700 XT

Intro

Compare that to the Radeon RX 6700 XT, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 2321 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM works at a frequency of 2000 MHz on this model. It features 2560 SPUs as well as 160 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

	Difference: 122880 (31%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is quite a bit (more or less 49%) faster with regards to anisotropic filtering than the Radeon RX 6700 XT. (explain)

GeForce RTX 4070 Ti		554400 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 6700 XT		371360 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 183040 (49%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti should be a lot (more or less 24%) better at full screen anti-aliasing than the Radeon RX 6700 XT, and also able to handle higher screen resolutions without losing too much performance. (explain)

GeForce RTX 4070 Ti		184800 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 6700 XT		148544 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 36256 (24%)

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 information (in units of MB per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface in a second. It's worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR type memory, it should 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 AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher this number, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly write to the local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called 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 potential to reach the maximum fill rate.
