On May 20, a Bilibili content creator released the first independent test videos for Lisuan’s LX 7G100. The tests were conducted at 1080P resolution on a Ryzen 9 9800X3D platform, with ASUS’s TUF RTX 3060 serving as the comparison model. Results showed that the overall gaming performance of the LX 7G100 was roughly two-thirds of that of the RTX 3060, though most games ran smoothly. 3DMark benchmark scores also indicated there is significant room for improvement once drivers are further optimized. The video also introduced Lisuan Technology’s founding team: all three founders previously worked on core R&D for S3 Graphics — a dominant player in the 2D graphics acceleration market — and the LX 7G100 is their first fully self-developed product since returning to the consumer discrete GPU market after nearly 20 years; the company was founded in 2021.
The initial release had several issues needing fixes: chipset drivers must be installed first prior to installing GPU drivers, some OS versions lack compatibility, the GPU core temperature and fan speed cannot be monitored, and fan speed is non-adjustable. The creator compared these problems to the driver-related difficulties Intel Arc and early AMD GPUs faced, noting that Lisuan’s engineering team has made clear commitments to future updates. He advised viewers to adopt a rational and tolerant attitude toward this domestically developed, fully self-designed GPU during its early stages.
