Speeds are estimates for a single request — one conversation at a time — calculated from memory bandwidth, model size and quantisation. Real throughput varies with the inference runtime and its version. Figures published by hardware vendors measure many simultaneous requests and are much higher.

What the numbers mean
Why memory is the number that matters here
Memory
16 GB
Bandwidth
622 GB/s
Largest model
Nemotron 3-Nano-30B-A3B
16 GB of GDDR6 puts the Radeon RX 7700 comfortably into small and mid-sized models, with roughly 14.4 GB usable once the driver overhead is taken out. The largest models are out of reach without splitting them.
The memory bus moves 622 GB/s across a 256-bit bus. That is the number that governs generation speed — arithmetic per byte read is small enough that the bus, not the cores, is what everything waits on.
That comes from a 2.43 GHz memory clock across the bus width above. Widening the bus and raising the clock are the two levers a manufacturer has, which is why a card with unremarkable cores can still generate quickly.
The practical ceiling is Nemotron 3-Nano-30B-A3B at 31.6B, held at Q3_K_M and running at roughly 97.5 tokens per second.
The chip and how it was built
The Radeon RX 7700 is built on the Navi 32 graphics processor, using AMD's RDNA 3.0 architecture, as part of the Navi III(RX 7000) generation.
The chip is manufactured by TSMC, on a 5 nm process, with a die measuring 346 mm², holding 28.1 billion transistors. A smaller process generally means more performance for the same power, though for language models it matters far less than the memory subsystem.
It was released in September 2025. Inference software support tends to follow hardware by a year or two, so a card of this age generally has mature, well-optimised code paths available to it.
Compute throughput, and why it matters less than it looks
FP16
53.3 TFLOPS
FP64
832 GFLOPS
On paper the Radeon RX 7700 reaches 53.3 TFLOPS at half precision and 26.6 TFLOPS at single precision. These are peak figures no real workload sustains, and generating text reaches only a small fraction of them — decoding is limited by memory rather than arithmetic, which is why a card can look enormously powerful here and still produce tokens at an ordinary rate.
Double-precision throughput is 832 GFLOPS. It has no bearing on running a language model — no inference runtime uses it — but it separates datacentre parts from consumer ones, since the latter deliberately restrict it.
Clocks run from 1.9 GHz at base to 2.6 GHz boosted. Worth far less here than on a gaming benchmark: raising the clock speeds up the arithmetic, and the arithmetic is not what generation is waiting on.
Cache and processing units
The Radeon RX 7700 has 128 KB of L1 cache, backed by 2 MB of L2. Cache absorbs a share of the memory traffic that would otherwise hit the main bus, which is the one place on this page where a number other than bandwidth quietly affects generation speed — a large L2 lets more of the working set stay close to the cores.
There are 2,560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, and 96 render output units. These drive graphics workloads and contribute to prompt processing, but they sit idle for much of the time a model spends generating a reply.
Power, size and installation
Power draw
200 W
The Radeon RX 7700 is rated at 200 W, with a 550 W power supply suggested for the whole system. Running a language model keeps a card busy in bursts rather than continuously — it draws hard while generating and idles between requests — so sustained draw over a working day is usually well below the rated figure.
The board occupies a dual-slot, measuring 267 mm long, and needs 1x 8-pin. Worth checking against the case and power supply already in the machine, since the largest cards need considerably more of both than a typical desktop provides.
It connects over PCIe 4.0 x16. The interface governs how quickly a model is loaded from disk into the card, not how fast it runs once there, so a narrower link costs a few seconds at startup and nothing thereafter.

Where this card produces tokens quickest. Smaller models dominate here, because generating each token means reading the whole model out of memory once.
Step by step
How to work out the tokens per second of a Radeon RX 7700
You do not have to calculate anything by hand — the gputps.com calculator on this page has already worked it out for every model this card can hold. Reading off the answer takes six steps.
-
01
Find the model in the table
All 432 models the Radeon RX 7700 handles are already listed. The search box takes a name or a size such as 27b, which matches on parameter count.
-
02
Set the context length you will actually use
Longer conversations cost memory on top of the weights. With 16 GB to work in, that is frequently the difference between a model fitting and not.
-
03
Choose how far you will compress
By default the table picks the least-compressed copy that fits. Setting a floor removes models that only qualify through heavy compression.
-
04
Read the speed and the range
The figures are calculated, not measured. 206 tok/s on Gemma 3 QAT 1B is the fastest result on this card, and like every row it carries a range that reflects how much the runtime matters.
-
05
Read the fit verdict last
Compare what each model needs with the 16 GB this card provides. Tight means it works today; comfortable means it still works when the conversation grows.
-
06
Open the model to compare cards
Following a model through to its own page lists all the hardware that can run it, so you can see where the Radeon RX 7700 sits against the alternatives.
Answers
Radeon RX 7700 — common questions
What AI models can a Radeon RX 7700 run?
432 of the 679 open-weight language models we track fit on a Radeon RX 7700 and can be run locally on it. The table on this page lists every one, with the memory it needs, the quantisation it runs at and an estimated generation speed.
What is the largest AI model a Radeon RX 7700 can run?
The largest model in our catalogue that fits on a Radeon RX 7700 is Nemotron 3-Nano-30B-A3B at 31.6B parameters, compressed to Q3_K_M. It generates roughly 97.5 tokens per second and needs about 14.4 GB of the card's memory.
How many tokens per second does a Radeon RX 7700 produce?
It depends on the model. On a Radeon RX 7700 the fastest model we track is Gemma 3 QAT 1B at about 206 tokens per second, while larger models run proportionally slower because each token requires reading the whole model out of memory once. Speeds are estimates for a single conversation at a time.
Can a Radeon RX 7700 run a 7B model?
Yes. For example a Radeon RX 7700 runs Multi-Token Prediction 7B at Q8_0, using about 7.9 GB of memory and generating around 30.7 tokens per second.
Can a Radeon RX 7700 run a 13B model?
Yes. For example a Radeon RX 7700 runs DeepSeekMoE-16B at Q6_K, using about 13.7 GB of memory and generating around 104 tokens per second.
Can a Radeon RX 7700 run a 30B model?
Yes. For example a Radeon RX 7700 runs ERNIE-4.5-VL-28B-A3B at Q3_K_M, using about 12.9 GB of memory and generating around 110 tokens per second.
How much memory does a Radeon RX 7700 have?
A Radeon RX 7700 has 16 GB of GDDR6 memory. Around a tenth of that is reserved by the inference runtime and the driver, leaving roughly 14.4 GB available for a model and its conversation.
What is the memory bandwidth of a Radeon RX 7700?
The Radeon RX 7700 has 622 GB/s of memory bandwidth, across a 256-bit memory bus. This is the single best predictor of how fast it generates text, because producing each token means reading the entire model out of memory once.
What type of memory does a Radeon RX 7700 use?
It uses GDDR6 clocked at 2.43 GHz. HBM types are found on datacentre accelerators and carry far more bandwidth than the GDDR used on desktop cards, which is why they generate tokens considerably faster at the same capacity.
Who makes the Radeon RX 7700?
The Radeon RX 7700 is a AMD product, with the chip manufactured by TSMC, on a 5 nm process.
When was the Radeon RX 7700 released?
The Radeon RX 7700 was released in September 2025.
How much power does a Radeon RX 7700 use?
The Radeon RX 7700 has a rated board power of 200 W, and a 550 W system power supply is suggested. Generating text draws hard in bursts and idles between requests, so average consumption over a working session is normally well below the rated figure.
How much cache does a Radeon RX 7700 have?
The Radeon RX 7700 has 128 KB of L1 cache, and 2 MB of L2 cache. Cache absorbs part of the memory traffic that would otherwise reach the main bus, so a larger L2 gives a modest lift to generation speed beyond what bandwidth alone predicts.
What are the TFLOPS of a Radeon RX 7700?
The Radeon RX 7700 is rated at 53.3 TFLOPS at half precision and 26.6 TFLOPS at single precision. These are peak arithmetic ceilings rather than achievable rates, and text generation reaches only a small fraction of them because it is limited by memory bandwidth instead.
Does the Radeon RX 7700 support CUDA?
No. CUDA is NVIDIA-only, and the Radeon RX 7700 is a AMD card. It runs language models through ROCm, Vulkan or Metal depending on the software, which are less mature than the CUDA path — our estimates apply a penalty for that.
What bus interface does the Radeon RX 7700 use?
It uses PCIe 4.0 x16. This governs how fast a model is loaded onto the card rather than how fast it runs once loaded, so it costs a few seconds at startup and nothing during generation.
Is the Radeon RX 7700 good for running local AI models?
Its memory covers small and mid-sized models, though the largest are out of reach and its bandwidth gives usable, if unspectacular, generation speeds. In total it runs 432 of the models we track. Whether that is enough depends entirely on which model you want — the table above answers that directly.
Can a Radeon RX 7700 run a model that does not fit in its memory?
Only partly. Layers beyond the 16 GB sit in system memory and run at a fraction of the speed, so a mostly-offloaded model is rarely worth using. Every figure here assumes it is fully resident on the card.
Would two Radeon RX 7700 cards be twice as fast?
Pairing Radeon RX 7700 cards buys headroom rather than pace: 32 GB of combined memory, at roughly the same generation speed as one.
The other direction
Looking at it from the other side?
This page starts from the hardware. If you already know which model you want and need to know what it takes to run it, start from the model instead.
