Bottom line: how fast is the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB?

At 1440p <unspecified>, the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB averages 90 fps in Cyberpunk 2077, per Engadget. For local LLM inference it generates 33.5 tokens/sec running qwen2.5-coder:14b at q4_K_M under llama.cpp, per llama.cpp community benchmark. In Geekbench 6 OpenCL it scores 102,750 points, per StorageReview. Its 16 GB of VRAM is the binding constraint for local inference: the largest model on file at 4-bit quantization on this card is qwen3.8:27b (27B parameters, IQ4_XS), generating 20.1 tokens/sec under llama.cpp (Vulkan), per llama.cpp GitHub Discussion #10879.

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.
