04About the RX 9070 XT 16 GB
ComfyUI supports AMD GPUs on Windows officially since v0.7.0 (January 2026), through ROCm. Memory works the same as on NVIDIA, so the fit verdicts apply. Some custom nodes are NVIDIA-only. RX 9000 (RDNA 4) GPUs have FP8 hardware, and ComfyUI computes FP8 natively on them with PyTorch 2.7+ and ROCm 6.4+.
