Key differences
The 10AX066 has about 22% more logic capacity (501K vs 412K LUT4 equivalents).
They use different logic architectures: the 10AX066 is built from ALMs and the XC7VX415T from LUT6, so the raw LUT counts (251K vs 258K) are not directly comparable.
For arithmetic, the XC7VX415T has 2,160 DSP slices against 1,687 variable-precision DSP blocks on the 10AX066.
The 10AX066 has more on-chip memory (41.7 Mb vs 30.9 Mb).
Both have transceivers: 48 at up to 17.4 Gb/s on the 10AX066 and 48 at up to 13.1 Gb/s on the XC7VX415T.
The 10AX066 is designed with Altera Quartus Prime and the XC7VX415T with AMD Vivado.
