Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce RTX 2080 vs Radeon RX 5700 XT
IntroThe GeForce RTX 2080 makes use of a 12 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core speed at 1515 MHz. The GDDR6 memory runs at a frequency of 1750 MHz on this specific card. It features 2944 SPUs as well as 184 TAUs and 64 ROPs.Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 5700 XT, which makes use of a 7 nm design. AMD has clocked the core speed at 1605 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM runs at a speed of 1750 MHz on this particular model. It features 2560 SPUs as well as 160 TAUs and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthBoth cards have exactly the same memory bandwidth, so in theory they should perform the same. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce RTX 2080 should be a bit (more or less 9%) faster with regards to AF than the Radeon RX 5700 XT. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon RX 5700 XT is a better choice, though not by far. (explain)
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. Price Comparison

Display Specifications
Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of information (in units of MB per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface within a second. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total 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 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 graphics card could possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
