– The Lisuan LX 7G100 sits at about 65% of RTX 3060 performance on average (1080p, with RT off, no SR, no Reflex), showing steady but incomplete parity with Nvidia’s mid-range GPU.
– In several titles (e.g., Monster Hunter Rise, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Dota 2), the RTX 3060 substantially outperforms the LX 7G100 by over 40%, highlighting remaining gaps for newer/AAA games.
– At its ~$485 launch price, the LX 7G100 is generally not a strong value for 1080p+ gaming compared to the RTX 3060, especially for future titles.
Overview and context
The Lisuan LX 7G100 is currently the most capable domestically produced GPU that China has to offer. While it’s a proper improvement over the past Chinese models, it still has a long way to go to beat GPUs from other big players, and a detailed review from Chao Wan Ke has shown exactly that.
Comparative testing focus
Now, another review from a Chinese reviewer has popped up, and this one puts the LX 7G100 against the RTX 3060 desktop GPU, the mid-range offering from Nvidia that was released in late 2021. In some games, the Chinese GPU comes surprisingly close, which is rather impressive.
Overall performance trend
However, in most of the other games, there’s a big performance difference between the two. To be precise, on average, the Lisuan LX 7G100 was able to offer 65% of the performance of the Nvidia RTX 3060. It’s worth noting that this test, which was done by a BiliBili user called Ancient PC Builder, specifically targets 1080p gaming.
Testing specifics
All the games were tested with Ray Tracing, Super Resolution, and Nvidia Reflex turned off, and the test build had the AMD Ryzen 9 9800X3D as the CPU. In titles like Final Fantasy VII Remake, Where Winds Meet, and Marvel’s Spider-Man, there was a small difference between the two.
Varying results across titles
On the other hand, in other games like Monster Hunter Rise, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, and Dota 2, the 5+ year-old Nvidia RTX 3060 had an over 40% advantage. This means Lisuan LX 7G100 wouldn’t be a good pick for those who want to run upcoming games at anything above 1080p, especially for its ~$485 launch price. Still, these results suggest that China’s domestic GPU efforts are making steady progress.
