What actually differs
The Radeon RX 7700 XT is the newer part: RDNA 3, launched in 2023, against the Radeon RX 7900 XT's RDNA 3 from 2022. Newer architectures typically add lower-precision formats and better throughput per watt, so check the precision rows your workload actually uses.
Dense throughput for the Radeon RX 7700 XT against the Radeon RX 7900 XT: FP32 35 vs 52 TFLOPS, FP16 70 vs 103 TFLOPS. Sparse figures, where the vendor publishes them, appear under each dense number in the performance table.
Memory is 12 GB against 20 GB, fed at 432 GB/s versus 800 GB/s. More memory per GPU means larger models fit before you have to shard across cards, which often matters more than raw TFLOPS for inference.
Power budgets are 245 W for the Radeon RX 7700 XT and 315 W for the Radeon RX 7900 XT. At FP32 that works out to 0.14 against 0.16 TFLOPS per watt.
For LLM training and inference, weight the FP8 and FP16 rows and memory capacity most heavily. For scientific and HPC workloads, the FP64 row is the one to read.
