Speed is modeled, not measured: decode is memory-bandwidth bound, so tokens per second is bytes read per token against achievable bandwidth. Mixture-of-experts models carry a wider band because only the routed experts are read each step, and few have been measured publicly.
Measured on this card
| Workload◍ | Median | Middle 50% | Runs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Image generation | 14.33 it/s | 10.32–19.10 | 1,258 |
| Prompt processing | 3236.63 tok/s | 2011.82–3443.90 | 51 |
| Text generation | 134.87 tok/s | 122.64–145.55 | 51 |
Aggregated from community-submitted runs, so the spread is wide by nature — it covers different models, resolutions, step counts and settings, not one controlled configuration. Read the middle 50% rather than the median alone. These figures are reproduced with attribution from vladmandic-sd-data-benchmark, which publishes no licence — so we display and link rather than redistribute them.
Questions people ask
- What AI models can a Radeon RX 7900 XTX run?
- 1958 of 2118 indexed open-weight models fit a Radeon RX 7900 XTX at 16,384 context with q8_0 KV cache, the largest being Fallen-Gemma3-27B-v1 at Q6_K. That covers text, vision-language, image, video and speech models.
- How much usable memory does a Radeon RX 7900 XTX actually have?
- Its nameplate is 24 GB, but about 22.32 GiB is available to a model once driver and compositor overhead is accounted for.
- Is a Radeon RX 7900 XTX fast for local AI?
- Its memory bandwidth is 960 GB/s, and that figure — not teraflops — is what governs token generation speed. Capacity decides what you can run; bandwidth decides how fast it runs.
