AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE — Benchmarks & Specs
Short answer: the AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE generates 116 tokens/sec on llama2:7b (Q4_0) under llama.cpp in a single cited run, per llama.cpp GitHub Discussions; there are too few comparable runs on file for a median. Its 16 GB of VRAM holds up to gpt-oss-20b at MXFP4 with an ~8K context, by the Will-It-Run matrix's sizing (14 of 23 models fit).
- Single cited run 116 tok/s llama2:7b Q4_0, per llama.cpp GitHub Discussions
- Fits in 16 GB up to gpt-oss-20b at MXFP4 → at ~8K context; 14 of 23 models in the Will-It-Run matrix
Bottom line: how fast is the Radeon RX 7900 GRE?
At 1440p High, the Radeon RX 7900 GRE averages 118 fps in Dying Light 2, per Gamers Nexus. For local LLM inference it generates 116.1 tokens/sec running llama2:7b at Q4_0 under llama.cpp, per llama.cpp GitHub Discussions. In 3DMark Fire Strike it scores 31,500–51,358 points, across two published results (LanOC Reviews, Tom's Hardware). It has 16 GB of VRAM, and the llama2:7b run above (7B parameters) is the largest model on file at 4-bit quantization on this card. Larger models have no sourced run on file.
Every 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. SpecPicks aggregates published measurements; it does not report first-party benchmark runs.
Check what fits in 16 GB: by Q4-class file size, 14 of the 23 open-weight models in the SpecPicks Will-It-Run matrix load entirely into the AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE's 16 GB with 1.5 GB left for an ~8K context, up to gpt-oss-20b (a 12.1 GB MXFP4 file per its Hugging Face listing).
