NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti 16GB vs AMD RX 7600 XT 16GB for local LLMs
53 reports on the NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti 16GB and 3 on the AMD RX 7600 XT 16GB
Which is faster for local LLMs?
On Qwen3.8 27B at 3-bit, the NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti 16GB runs at 29.2 tokens per second (one run) and the AMD RX 7600 XT 16GB at 18.0 (one run). Those are community reports whose engines and settings differ, so the gap is a rough sign, not a controlled measure of the two cards. Memory bandwidth, which caps how fast a card can write, is 1.6x higher on the NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti 16GB (448 GB/s on the NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti 16GB, 288 on the AMD RX 7600 XT 16GB).

Measured on both
Median tokens per second from plain runs (one device, one request, no speculative decoding, the whole model in the device's memory) of the same model size at the same quant level. Engines and context lengths can still differ between the runs. How to read these

Estimated by the calculator
The quant the calculator recommends for each card and its estimated speed at a 32,768-token context with 32 GB of system RAM, from memory bandwidth and the model's shape. Where a model was also measured above, the measurement wins.
