GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs GeForce RTX 4070 Ti

Intro

Compare those specs to the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti, which has a GPU core clock speed of 2310 MHz, and 12288 MB of GDDR6X RAM set to run at 1313 MHz through a 192-bit bus. It also is made up of 7680 Stream Processors, 240 TAUs, and 80 ROPs.

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		507904 MB/sec
	Difference: 8192 (2%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is quite a bit (approximately 75%) more effective at AF than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. (explain)

GeForce RTX 4070 Ti		554400 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		316800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 237600 (75%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is much (approximately 75%) more effective at AA than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER, and also should be capable of handling higher screen resolutions without losing too much performance. (explain)

GeForce RTX 4070 Ti		184800 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		105600 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 79200 (75%)

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 (measured in MB per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface within a second. It's calculated by multiplying the interface width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card could possibly record to its local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.
