The short answer
Apple M4 Max (128GB) can run 22 models that AMD RX 7800 XT can't fit in VRAM — mostly the larger models. For the 23 models both can handle, speeds are similar. If you want headroom for bigger models, Apple M4 Max (128GB) is the clear choice.
22 models B runs, A can't
16 models A is 20%+ faster
7 equal (both run, <20% diff)
9 too large for either
