GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs Nvidia Titan Xp

Intro

Compare those specs to the Nvidia Titan Xp, which comes with a core clock frequency of 1582 MHz and a GDDR5X memory frequency of 1426 MHz. It also makes use of a 384-bit bus, and uses a 16 nm design. It is made up of 3840 SPUs, 240 TAUs, and 96 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Both cards have the same power consumption.

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the Nvidia Titan Xp is 10% quicker than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER in general, because of its higher bandwidth. (explain)

Nvidia Titan Xp		560845 MB/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		507904 MB/sec
	Difference: 52941 (10%)

Texel Rate

The Nvidia Titan Xp will be just a bit (approximately 20%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. (explain)

Nvidia Titan Xp		379680 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		316800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 62880 (20%)

Pixel Rate

The Nvidia Titan Xp will be quite a bit (more or less 44%) faster with regards to FSAA than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER, and should be capable of handling higher resolutions while still performing well. (explain)

Nvidia Titan Xp		151872 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		105600 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 46272 (44%)

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 max amount of information (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, 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 amount of texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the graphics card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly record to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is calculated by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the the core clock speed. 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 output rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the maximum fill rate.
