RTX 4060 Ti vs RX 7600 XT for local AI
Both fit the same models we track, up to gpt-oss 20B. They generate at about the same speed, since their memory bandwidth is close (288 and 288 GB/s).
Memory and bandwidth
Memory decides which models fit. Bandwidth decides how fast they generate, because every token reads the model's active weights once.

They're close for local AI, so pick on price. Price matters as much as either number: check used prices on the builds page, where every parts list has a measured or estimated speed.
Both columns use the same formula: memory bandwidth divided by the weights read per token, calibrated on our own rack, with Ollama's default 4-bit sizes. Real results are usually within about a third. Measured either one? Send us the number.
