The short answer
AMD RX 7900 XTX can run 10 models that NVIDIA RTX 5080 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, AMD RX 7900 XTX is the clear choice.
10 models A runs, B can't
16 models B is 20%+ faster
7 equal (both run, <20% diff)
21 too large for either
