GeForce RTX 2060 Super vs Radeon R9 Nano

Intro

Compare all that to the Radeon R9 Nano, which features GPU core speed of 1000 MHz, and 4096 MB of HBM RAM running at 500 MHz through a 4096-bit bus. It also features 4096 Stream Processors, 256 TAUs, and 64 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Both cards have the same power consumption.

Memory Bandwidth

The Radeon R9 Nano should theoretically be a bit faster than the GeForce RTX 2060 Super overall. (explain)

Radeon R9 Nano		512000 MB/sec
GeForce RTX 2060 Super		458752 MB/sec
	Difference: 53248 (12%)

Texel Rate

The Radeon R9 Nano will be quite a bit (more or less 28%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the GeForce RTX 2060 Super. (explain)

Radeon R9 Nano		256000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2060 Super		199920 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 56080 (28%)

Pixel Rate

If using a high resolution is important to you, then the GeForce RTX 2060 Super is a better choice, and very much so. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2060 Super		94080 Mpixels/sec
Radeon R9 Nano		64000 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 30080 (47%)

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 maximum amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be transported across the external memory interface in a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the better 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 number is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels that the graphics chip could possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of colour ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
