Chinese video card Lisuan LX 7G100 sells 30 thousand units in 48 hours

Lisuan Technology announced that the LX 7G100 Founder Edition graphics card received more than 30 thousand reservations in 48 hours. The first limited batch sold out almost instantly on the JD.com platform, marking a milestone for the Chinese computer sector.

Apesar of RTX 3060-level performance, the gpu won over local enthusiasts for its proposed domestic alternative. The card operates with its own hardware architecture, driver stack and software ecosystem, avoiding dependence on foreign suppliers.

Especificações and hardware features

The LX 7G100 Founder Edition features 12GB of GDDR6 memory and supports modern technologies. Confira main features:

• 4 DisplayPort 1.4a outputs
• Suporte at 8K60 HDR
• Compatibilidade with DirectX 12, Vulkan 1.3 and OpenGL 4.6
• Suporte to OpenCL 3.0

The board features a design inspired by the style of the Founder Edition by Nvidia, with unit numbering and the signature of the co-founder and co-CEO Xuan Yifang. Este collectible ringtone generated additional interest among Chinese gamers.

Desempenho in games compared to competitors

Benchmarking revealed that the LX 7G100 does not come with high-end cards. In tests with recent titles, the card approaches the performance of the RTX 3060, but lags significantly behind in real-world situations. Cyberpunk 2077 ran at 1080p with FSR3 Quality and frame generation reaching 88 fps on the LX 7G100, while the RTX 4060 reached 232 fps and the Intel Arc B580 reached 243 fps. Black Myth: Wukong only got 56 fps, and Forza Horizon 5 in the Low preset got 48 fps.

The results show that the hardware needs adjustments and optimizations. Lisuan published a list of 40 titles with recommended settings, but many suggestions depend on FSR, frame generation or manually adjusted presets, highlighting the limitations of the current architecture.

Preço and value proposition in the market

Price represents a significant challenge to competitiveness. The LX 7G100 Founder Edition was priced at 3,299 RMB, roughly $455 before government subsidies, putting it in line with much more powerful cards from established manufacturers. The RTX 5060 Ti 16GB offers superior performance at the same price level.

Para any buyer looking for better value for money, the proposal remains weak when compared to international competitors. Contudo, the symbolic value of a working Chinese GPU has surpassed the mathematical equation of performance per dollar among local consumers.

Próximas stages and availability

Lisuan confirmed that a second batch of Founder Edition will be released on June 18th. The company plans to expand availability to meet growing demand in the domestic market. Initial interest suggests that there is room for national alternatives even when performance falls short of global leaders.

The initiative represents an important step towards Chinese technological autonomy in the gaming GPU segment. Apesar technical limitations, the commercial success of the first batch proves that enthusiasts are willing to support domestic solutions as alternatives to American and Taiwanese producers.
