MSI Radeon RX 5700 EVOKE GP vs RX 5700 EVOKE GP OC

The maximum theoretical pixel fillrate is proportional to graphics clock and the number of Raster Operations Pipelines (ROPs). The MSI Radeon RX 5700 EVOKE GP OC has an edge here, as it runs at a bit higher frequency, and both GPUs have the same number of ROPs. Better pixel fill rate allows more pixels to be drawn on screen per second, which results in increased graphics card performance, unless the graphics card is limited by something else, such as texture fillrate, memory bandwidth or CPU speed.

Because two cards have the same number of TMUs, and the Radeon RX 5700 EVOKE GP OC operates at slightly higher frequency, it also has higher texture fillrate. Better texture fill rate means that the graphics card can utilize more sophisticated 3D effects and/or map more textures to each texel, which improves visual appearance of games and generated images.

Single Precision performance is convenient for estimating card's maximum speed in applications, that process only single-precision floating point data. This performance is measured in GFLOPS, or Giga (billions of) Floating Point Operations Per Second. Generally, the more CUDA cores or stream processors the GPU has, and the the faster they run at, the higher Single Precision performance will be. The Radeon RX 5700 EVOKE GP OC graphics unit has a insignificant lead here. Higher single-precision performance number means the graphics card will perform better in general computing applications. Since CUDA cores or stream processors are also used as vertex and geometry shaders for 3D image generation, higher performance is also beneficial to games.

Maximum Double Precision performance is similar to the Single Precision performance, except that it applies to double-precision (64-bit) floating point operations. Since games do not use double-precision arithmetics, this characteristic is unimportant to games performance. The MSI Radeon RX 5700 EVOKE GP OC is faster when processing 64-bit floating-point numbers.

Memory bandwidth of both GPUs is identical.
