Radeon RX 6900 XT		524288 MB/sec
	Difference: 36557 (7%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6900 XT is a lot (about 54%) more effective at texture filtering than the Nvidia Titan Xp. (explain)

Radeon RX 6900 XT		584000 Mtexels/sec
Nvidia Titan Xp		379680 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 204320 (54%)

Pixel Rate

If using high levels of AA is important to you, then the Radeon RX 6900 XT is superior to the Nvidia Titan Xp, by far. (explain)

Radeon RX 6900 XT		233600 Mpixels/sec
Nvidia Titan Xp		151872 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 81728 (54%)

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. It's worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The better 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 processed per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The higher the texel rate, the better the 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 amount of pixels the graphics card could possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
