Lisuan LX 7G100: China's fastest gaming GPU still falls far behind RTX 4060

Fully detailed months ago, a Lisuan LX 7G100 graphics card has now been put through early independent gaming benchmarks. Built on Lisuan Tech’s in-house TrueGPU architecture, the card reportedly fully supports DirectX 12 and modern AAA titles without the severe driver issues that plagued earlier Chinese GPUs.

The LX 7G100 model teste comes equipped with 12 GB of GDDR6 memory and uses a 6 nm GPU chip known as the 7G106. In real-world gaming tests at 1080p, the card manages 56 FPS in Black Myth: Wukong, 57 FPS in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, 80 FPS in Elden Ring, 150 FPS in Grand Theft Auto V, and 182 FPS in Dota 2. In Cyberpunk 2077 with FSR3 Quality mode and frame generation enabled, the GPU averages around 88 FPS.

While those numbers are enough for playable gameplay, the card still falls roughly 30% behind mainstream competitors like the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 and Intel Arc B580, and in poorly supported games, the performance gap widens further, with competing GPUs delivering two to three times higher frame rates. The hardware itself also lacks ray tracing support, with Lisuan planning to add it only in future GPU generations.

Reviewers say the biggest improvement compared to older Chinese GPUs is game compatibility. Modern titles launch and run without major issues or months of waiting for driver fixes. However, the software side still needs work. Testers reported stuttering, inconsistent frame pacing, a nearly empty driver control panel, and overclock settings resetting after every reboot.

Pricing may be the hardest sell for the LX 7G100. In China, the Founders Edition is listed at around ~$485, putting it close to much faster alternatives from Nvidia, AMD, and Intel.
