AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti
The AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti sit within a few percent of each other on our index. Treat them as equivalent in raw performance and decide on price, power draw and — for graphics cards — video memory instead.

| Memory bus | 256-bit | 256-bit |
| Release year | 2020 | 2025 (better) |
| Board power | 300 W | 300 W |
| Suggested PSU | 750 W | 750 W |
| Hardware ray tracing | Yes | Yes |
| Upscaling support | FSR 3 | DLSS 4, FSR 3 |
| DirectX | 12 Ultimate | 12 Ultimate |
Green marks the stronger figure for that row only — for power draw and PSU requirement, lower is treated as better. Performance indexes are CanMyPcPlay estimates; read how they are derived.
Which should you pick?
- Check video memory, not just speed. A faster card with less VRAM can perform worse in recent titles at high texture settings.
- Check power and clearance. Confirm your PSU and case can take the card — the build checker does this.
- Upscaling support differs. DLSS is NVIDIA-only; FSR and XeSS run more broadly.
