AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB vs AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT
AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB
► remove from comparison
AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT is a mid-range graphics card based on AMD's Navi 44 (N44 XT, RDNA 4) chip that features 32 CUs = 2,048 cores. The model features 16 GB of GDDR6 VRAM with a 128-bit bus.
The performance is slightly higher than the old Radeon RX 7700 XT but stays below the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti.
The Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB requires 182 watts of power, although custom models from AiB-partners may offer higher wattage.
AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT
► remove from comparison
The AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT is a mid-range desktop GPU and is primarily designed for gaming in 1,440p. This makes the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT the smallest offshoot in the 1,440p gaming segment, placing it directly behind the AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT and the AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE. The graphics chip is manufactured using the 5 nm process at TSMC. The chiplet design is also used in the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT, although only three MCDs are active here. With 12 GB of VRAM, the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT has just as much as the AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT, which is its direct predecessor.
Features
RDNA 3 continues to serve as the basis for the graphics chip called Navi 32. The already established features such as SAM (Smart Access Memory) and the Infinity Cache are also available in the new mid-range model aka Radeon RX 7700 XT. Compared to the AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT the ray tracing part has been revised and AI support has been implemented on the hardware side. The media engine has been updated and videos can be decoded/encoded with a resolution of up to 8K. The modern DisplayPort 2.1 connection is also available on the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT. AMD's answer to DLSS is FSR 2.0 and offers a significant increase in performance in games with the upscaling option. With FSR 3, there will be another feature in the near future which, like DLSS 3.0, promises even better frame rates thanks to frame generation.
Performance
The performance of the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT in games without ray tracing is well ahead of an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti. The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 is out of reach for the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT. In the in-house duel, the performance of the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT can be compared with an AMD Radeon RX 6800 can be compared.
Power consumption
The power consumption of the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT is estimated by the manufacturer at 245 watts (TBP) and is therefore only marginally more economical than an AMD Radeon RX 6800 (250 watts). Compared to the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 the AMD Radeon RX 7500 XT requires 45 watts more.
