What actually differs
Both GPUs launched in 2025: the Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB on RDNA 4 and the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB on RDNA 4.
Dense throughput for the Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB against the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB: FP32 26 vs 26 TFLOPS, FP16 103 vs 103 TFLOPS, FP8 205 vs 205 TFLOPS. Sparse figures, where the vendor publishes them, appear under each dense number in the performance table.
Memory is 8 GB against 16 GB, fed at 320 GB/s versus 320 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 150 W for the Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB and 160 W for the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB. At FP32 that works out to 0.17 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.
