What does this comparison mean?
The RX 7900 XTX 24GB leads the RX 6900 XT 16GB and adds 8GB. Both are high-tier Radeon models from different architectures; the XTX suffix matters, and neither the recorded lead nor capacity proves a particular ray-tracing result.
RX 6900 XT 16GB has 16GB and RX 7900 XTX 24GB has 24GB of graphics memory. Memory capacity, board dimensions, power connectors and the price of a particular used card are separate from this benchmark. Compare the exact item before deciding whether to upgrade.
The two GPUs in context
RX 6900 XT 16GB
The RX 6900 XT arrived in December 2020 with RDNA 2 architecture and 16GB of GDDR6. It uses the full Navi 21 configuration, rather than the reduced configuration of the RX 6800 XT.
RX 7900 XTX 24GB
The RX 7900 XTX is a 24GB GDDR6 RDNA 3 model released in December 2022, distinct from the 20GB RX 7900 XT.

How the figures are compared
Both FPS figures come from the owner-supplied GPUsed benchmark dataset. GPUsed reports a continuous FurMark run at 1080p for its physical-card checks. The percentage compares the higher model average with the lower one using the original FPS values. Our rating uses a compressed scale, with the fastest GPU at 100; it is separate from the percentage difference. A benchmark result does not predict gaming FPS.
GPUsed reports its physical-card checks typically last 30 to 60 minutes while temperature and stability are checked. The owner supplied the model-level FPS workbook on 2 October 2026; this benchmark dataset was last reconciled 3 October 2026. Historical cards tested are separate from the number of FPS runs behind a model average. Full benchmark method.
