Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce RTX 2060 Super vs GeForce RTX 3060
IntroThe GeForce RTX 2060 Super comes with core speeds of 1470 MHz on the GPU, and 1750 MHz on the 8192 MB of GDDR6 memory. It features 2176 SPUs along with 136 Texture Address Units and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.Compare all that to the GeForce RTX 3060, which makes use of a 8 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core speed at 1320 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM works at a frequency of 1875 MHz on this specific card. It features 3584 SPUs as well as 112 TAUs and 48 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthIn theory, the GeForce RTX 2060 Super should perform much faster than the GeForce RTX 3060 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce RTX 2060 Super is a lot (approximately 35%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 3060. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce RTX 2060 Super will be a lot (more or less 48%) faster with regards to anti-aliasing than the GeForce RTX 3060, and able to handle higher resolutions without slowing down too much. (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: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in a second. It's calculated by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. In the case of DDR type RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be applied per second. This is worked out by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core 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 applied in one second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the video 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 clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
