Notes on 12 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Release date: First retail sale December 13, 2022; announced November 3, 2022.
  2. 2NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, Launch price: NVIDIA sells no Founders Edition of this card; $749 is the starting MSRP for partner cards.
  3. 3AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Launch price: AMD's launch figure is the SEP (suggested e-commerce price); partner cards often sold higher.
  4. 4AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Boost clock: Boost is a burst maximum; typical gaming runs near the 2300 MHz game clock.
  5. 5AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Memory bandwidth: AMD also quotes 3500 GB/s 'effective' bandwidth with Infinity Cache; 960 GB/s is the raw VRAM figure.
  6. 6AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Recommended PSU: AMD's 800W minimum assumes a Ryzen 9 5900X-class system; other builds may need more headroom.
  7. 7NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, Power connectors: One 16-pin 12V-2x6 socket; an adapter for two 8-pin cables comes in the box.
  8. 8AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Power connectors: The reference card uses two 8-pin connectors.
  9. 9NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, DisplayPort version: DisplayPort 2.1b at the full UHBR20 rate.
  10. 10AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, DisplayPort version: DisplayPort 2.1 runs UHBR 13.5, up to 54Gbps of display link bandwidth per AMD.
  11. 11AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Hardware encode: AMD's spec table marks 4K H264 Encode, H265/HEVC Encode and AV1 Encode all as Yes.
  12. 12AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Video encoders: AMD describes a Dual Media Engine, i.e. two encode/decode engines, capable of simultaneous 8K60 HEVC streams.

Pricing and Power Efficiency

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti enters the market at a lower starting MSRP of $749, saving buyers significant money compared to the $999 AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX. This lower price pairs with a leaner 300 W board power requirement.

Running the RTX 5070 Ti requires less overhead from your power supply, asking for a 750 W PSU instead of the 800 W minimum recommended for the AMD card. That efficiency makes building a compatible system simpler and cheaper.

Memory and Performance

The Radeon RX 7900 XTX counters with a massive 24 GB of video memory and a wide 384-bit memory bus, delivering higher raw FP32 compute capability. That larger frame buffer handles extreme texture loads in high-resolution gaming.

Meanwhile, the RTX 5070 Ti uses faster GDDR7 memory operating at 28 Gbps over a 256-bit bus. It also packs more shader cores into its Blackwell architecture to drive high frame rates.

Connectivity and Display Features

Modern display standards favor the NVIDIA card, which includes PCIe 5.0 support for faster data transfer with compatible motherboards. It also equips a DisplayPort 2.1b output running at the full UHBR20 rate alongside an extra DisplayPort connection.

The Radeon relies on PCIe 4.0 and DisplayPort 2.1 running at UHBR 13.5. Both cards support up to four simultaneous displays and include dual media engines for video encoding.

The Verdict

Buy the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti if you want lower power draw, PCIe 5.0 support, and a friendlier $749 price point. Buy the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX if your workflow or gaming demands 24 GB of video memory and a wider 384-bit bus.
