AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT — Benchmarks & Specs
Short answer: the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT generates 711 tokens/sec on qwen3:8b (Q8_0) under llama.cpp in a single cited run, per LocalLLaMA; there are too few comparable runs on file for a median. Its 12 GB of VRAM holds up to Phi-4 14B at Q4_K_M with an ~8K context, by the Will-It-Run matrix's sizing (13 of 23 models fit).
- Single cited run 711 tok/s qwen3:8b Q8_0, per LocalLLaMA
- Fits in 12 GB up to Phi-4 14B at Q4_K_M → at ~8K context; 13 of 23 models in the Will-It-Run matrix
- Lowest linked price $749.00 Amazon, checked ; prices change
Bottom line: how fast is the Radeon RX 7700 XT?
At 1440p Ultra, the Radeon RX 7700 XT averages 68 fps in Baldur's Gate 3, per EveZone. For local LLM inference it generates 711.0 tokens/sec running qwen3:8b at Q8_0 under llama.cpp, per LocalLLaMA. In 3DMark Fire Strike it scores 41,539–42,801 points, across two published results (Notebookcheck, LanOC Reviews). Its 12 GB of VRAM is the binding constraint for local inference: by capacity alone it should fit 8-13B-parameter models at Q4_K_M (estimated from VRAM capacity, not a measured run).
Every measured figure above is a row in the tables below, and each row links out to the review or public benchmark database the number was taken from; the model-size range is an estimate from VRAM capacity. SpecPicks aggregates published measurements; it does not report first-party benchmark runs.
