Chinese Lisuan Tech’s LX 7G100 graphics card came to the fore with the title “Competitor to NVIDIA”. The model with 12 GB GDDR6 memory was able to run modern games in the first independent tests; However, the performance results, price tag and deficiencies on the driver side revealed that the card is not yet in the same class against NVIDIA and AMD. Lisuan LX 7G100 ran modern games, but the performance difference is large.
Lisuan LX 7G100 has become one of the most notable models of the recent period in China’s gaming-oriented domestic GPU studies. The card is built on the company’s own TrueGPU architecture and comes with 12 GB GDDR6 memory. On the official product page, usage areas such as gaming, live broadcasting, video editing and content production are highlighted for the LX 7G100. The card includes 4 DisplayPort 1.4a outputs, 8K@60Hz HDR image support, FreeSync, DSC, DirectX 12, Vulkan 1.3, OpenGL 4.6 and OpenCL 3.0 support.
🚨🇨🇳 BREAKING —China Unveils Gaming GPU To Challenge NVIDIA pic.twitter.com/ur1icq4NMl— Pamphlets (@PamphletsY) May 22, 2026 It is reported that the tested model uses a 6 nm GPU chip called 7G106 and works with 12 GB GDDR6 memory. It is stated that the card is on sale in China at approximately 3,300 yuan, which is approximately $480. This price level puts the card in the same shopping range as stronger competitors on paper.
The LX 7G100 gave results that sometimes approached the level of the GeForce RTX 3060 in synthetic tests. However, the picture was more limited in game tests. Cyberpunk 2077 ran at an average of 88 FPS at 1080p resolution with FSR3 Quality mode and frame generation turned on. In the same test, RTX 4060 achieved 232 FPS and Intel Arc B580 achieved 243 FPS. There is a similar picture in other games. Values of 56 FPS were seen 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.
On the Forza Horizon 5 side, 48 FPS results were shared at low settings. The most important aspect of the card was that a new domestic GPU manufacturer could run modern games without experiencing many major crashes. This was among the technical data showing that we were faced with a more mature software and hardware package compared to previous Chinese GPU trials. Previous examples such as the Moore Threads MTT S80 required lengthy driver updates for game compatibility.
However, the LX 7G100 still has shortcomings on the software side. In the tests, it was reported that the driver panel remained at a basic level, overclocking behavior was not consistent, tracking support was limited and there was no hardware ray tracing support. It is stated that Lisuan will leave ray tracing support to second generation GPUs. One of the important thresholds for Lisuan was Microsoft WHQL certification.
LX 7G100 has gone through the WHQL process, which ensures that drivers are more secure in the Windows ecosystem on the distribution side through digital signature and Windows Update. This certification was noted as an important approval for software compatibility by a Chinese GPU manufacturer other than NVIDIA, AMD and Intel.
