GeForce GTX Titan X vs Radeon RX 5600

Intro

Compare all of that to the Radeon RX 5600, which uses a 7 nm design. AMD has set the core frequency at 1375 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM is set to run at a frequency of 1500 MHz on this particular card. It features 2048 SPUs as well as 128 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

Radeon RX 5600		150 Watts
GeForce GTX Titan X		250 Watts
	Difference: 100 Watts (67%)

Memory Bandwidth

The GeForce GTX Titan X, in theory, should be a bit faster than the Radeon RX 5600 in general. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		336000 MB/sec
Radeon RX 5600		294912 MB/sec
	Difference: 41088 (14%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX Titan X should be a little bit (approximately 9%) better at AF than the Radeon RX 5600. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		192000 Mtexels/sec
Radeon RX 5600		176000 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 16000 (9%)

Pixel Rate

If using lots of anti-aliasing is important to you, then the GeForce GTX Titan X is superior to the Radeon RX 5600, though only just barely. (explain)

GeForce GTX Titan X		96000 Mpixels/sec
Radeon RX 5600		88000 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 8000 (9%)

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: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in one second. The number is worked out by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the better 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 in one second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics card can 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 ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill 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.
