How to Read These Results

A LynxBenchAI score is sustained throughput on a fixed catalogue of PyTorch models, measured after a warm-up at a batch size raised until throughput stops improving, so it is what the machine holds under load, not its best instant. Training, Inference and Compute are three separate scores; GT combines them (Training and Inference weigh 0.4 each, Compute 0.2).

Every run uses the stock, publicly released PyTorch stack, so a result is broadly indicative of the out-of-the-box PyTorch experience on that hardware, and so of custom PyTorch models too. It does not run your own model, and it is not a vendor-tuned peak like an MLPerf submission.

Scores compare only within one Index: the 26Q3 Index fixes the models, precisions, correctness thresholds and scoring, and a later Index may change them. Each test is one timed window, the scores have no 0-100 scale, and a precision a device cannot run scores zero rather than being skipped.

LynxBenchAI is built by TechnoLynx, which the European Commission engaged as an independent expert advisor on AI performance and benchmarking for AI Gigafactories under the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking (case study).

Questions

Is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 faster than the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti for AI?
On the LynxBenchAI 26Q3 Index, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 scores 1.44x the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti overall (Training 1.49x, Inference 1.45x, Compute 1.31x).
Should I choose the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 or the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti?
Choose the RTX 5070 for training (1.49x the RTX 5060 Ti). Choose the RTX 5070 for inference (1.45x the RTX 5060 Ti). Choose the RTX 5070 for raw compute (1.31x the RTX 5060 Ti). These follow the LynxBenchAI 26Q3 Index category scores, which are not raw throughput.
Where is the difference between the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti largest?
On the LynxBenchAI 26Q3 Index, the ratio is highest on GraphGPS (Peptides) at BF16 (Training), where the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 scores 1.68x the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, and lowest on Dense MatMul at FP16 (Compute), at 1.23x.
What does this result tell me about my own PyTorch model?
Every run uses the stock, publicly released PyTorch stack, so a result is broadly indicative of the out-of-the-box PyTorch experience on that hardware, and so of custom PyTorch models too. It does not run your own model, and it is not a vendor-tuned peak like an MLPerf submission.
