China demonstrated its GPUs for modern games on the first tests of the Lisuan LX 7G100, but they are still not fast enough.

Chaowanke publishes the first independent review of the Chinese graphics card Lisuan LX 7G100

The Chaowanke YouTube channel became one of the first to publish a full test of the new gaming GPU from Lisuan Tech – the Lisuan LX 7G100. The card is based on the proprietary TrueGPU architecture and is offered in the Founder Edition model with serial number 55.

Brief summary
* Positioning: the first modern Chinese graphics card that already supports most games right after release.
* Issues: drivers need improvement, and the price is too high compared to alternatives.
* Conclusion: the card deserves attention but should not yet be considered a direct replacement for the GeForce RTX 4060.

What Lisuan Tech achieved
1. Compatibility
The LX 7G100 already runs many modern projects and supports DirectX 12 from day one. This puts it in a more favorable position than many Chinese competitors (e.g., Moore Threads), who had to spend months refining drivers.

2. Performance
In games the card does not match the GeForce RTX 4060, but at launch it is already capable of running most modern titles. This makes it a more successful entry among new Chinese GPU manufacturers.

Key shortcomings
| Metric | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| Price | Expected around 3,300 CNY (~$480). Compared to the RTX 4060, secondary‑market RTX 3000 models, and Intel Arc B, this is too expensive. |
| Gaming performance | In 3DMark tests it can sometimes match these cards, but in real games it is significantly slower. |
| Ray tracing | Not supported. Lisuan promises to add it in the second‑generation GPU. |
| Utilities & monitoring | Drivers lack useful features; overclocking mode resets after reboot. MSI Afterburner shows only basic stats. |

Test results
| Game | Resolution | FPS LX 7G100 | FPS RTX 4060 | FPS Intel Arc B580 |
|------|------------|--------------|---------------|--------------------|
| Cyberpunk 2077 (1080p, FSR3) | 1080p | 88 | 23 | 24 |
| Black Myth: Wukong | 5K | 61 | 15 | — |
| Forza Horizon 5 | 4K | 58 | — | — |

Conclusion
The Lisuan LX 7G100 is not worth buying for gamers at its current price. It is not an alternative to the RTX 4060 and even falls short of the RTX 3060 in performance metrics. Nevertheless, it is a working consumer accelerator from China that can already run most modern games – an impressive starting point for the company.

We will closely monitor driver updates and pricing policy to see how the card evolves in the near future.
