Here we present a range of AI and productivity benchmarks, designed to offer insight into the sort of workloads that might be undertaken by someone purchasing this calibre of GPU.

We start with the Stable Diffusion 1.5 benchmark. This shows performance that's between the 4060 Ti 16GB and the RX 7800 XT, though some 12% slower than the 5060 Ti 16GB.

The deficit against the 5060 Ti 16GB grows to 23% in the Stable Diffusion XL test, though performance here is about level with the 7800 XT.

AI text generation is towards the bottom of the chart however, only beating the Arc A770 and slower than the B580 across all four models tested.

Closing out with Geekbench AI Pro, AMD does very well in the single precision test, coming out ahead of the 5060 Ti 16GB, though the half precision result shows much more ‘mixed' performance, though even that shows a big gain versus the 7800 XT.
