AMD Playstation 5 Pro GPU vs Lisuan Tech LX ULTRA Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data contains no benchmark scores for either the AMD Playstation 5 Pro GPU or the Lisuan Tech LX ULTRA. Both entries show an average benchmark score of zero, and the head-to-head benchmark list is empty. The percentile versus all GPUs is identical for both at 50, which places them at the midpoint of the database distribution. Without measured performance numbers, the comparative analysis must rely entirely on architectural and specification data rather than empirical test results. The absence of benchmark data means the database cannot currently confirm which part delivers higher frame rates in gaming workloads or faster compute throughput in productivity tasks. What can be examined is the theoretical peak performance derived from clock speeds and shader counts, which provides a baseline for expected behavior. The LX ULTRA shows an FP32 throughput of 24.58 TFLOPS, while the Playstation 5 Pro GPU shows 18.05 TFLOPS, a difference of 6.53 TFLOPS in favor of the LX ULTRA. This represents a 36% higher theoretical single-precision compute figure for the LX ULTRA. In FP16 throughput, the LX ULTRA reaches 49.15 TFLOPS versus 36.10 TFLOPS for the Playstation 5 Pro GPU, again favoring the LX ULTRA by a similar margin. Pixel fill rates show the LX ULTRA at 192.0 GPixel/s against 150.4 GPixel/s for the Playstation 5 Pro GPU, a 28% advantage. Texture fill rates tell a different story: the Playstation 5 Pro GPU delivers 564.0 GTexel/s, while the LX ULTRA manages 384.0 GTexel/s, giving the Playstation part a 47% lead in texture throughput. These conflicting fill rate figures suggest different design priorities, with the Playstation GPU emphasizing texture work and the LX ULTRA focusing on pixel and compute performance.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different architectural lineages. The AMD Playstation 5 Pro GPU uses the Viola chip built on RDNA 2.0 architecture, fabricated on a 4 nm process at TSMC. The Lisuan Tech LX ULTRA uses the 7G105 chip with a TrueGPU architecture, also fabricated at TSMC but on a 6 nm process. The Playstation GPU integrates 21,000 million transistors on a 279 mm² die, resulting in a transistor density of 75.3 million per square millimeter. The LX ULTRA does not disclose transistor count or die size, making direct density comparisons impossible. The manufacturing process difference is notable: the 4 nm node is two generations ahead of the 6 nm node in TSMC's roadmap, which typically allows for higher transistor density and improved power efficiency. However, the LX ULTRA compensates with a larger shader array: 6144 shading units compared to 3840 on the Playstation GPU. This 60% increase in shader count explains the LX ULTRA's higher FP32 throughput despite the older process node. Texture mapping units differ in the opposite direction: the Playstation GPU has 240 TMUs versus 192 on the LX ULTRA, which accounts for its texture fill rate advantage. Raster output units favor the LX ULTRA at 96 versus 64, supporting its pixel rate lead. Neither part lists dedicated ray tracing cores or tensor cores, and neither provides a DirectX version for the Playstation GPU (marked N/A), while the LX ULTRA supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2). Both support OpenGL 4.6, but Vulkan support differs: the Playstation GPU lists Vulkan 1.2, while the LX ULTRA lists Vulkan 1.3, a newer revision.

The Verdict

Based strictly on the specification data, the Lisuan Tech LX ULTRA appears positioned for compute-heavy workloads with its higher shader count, FP32 and FP16 throughput, and pixel fill rate. The AMD Playstation 5 Pro GPU counters with superior texture throughput and a denser, more modern 4 nm process. For gaming scenarios that rely heavily on texture sampling and filtering, the Playstation GPU's 47% higher texture rate could translate to smoother detail rendering. For workloads that scale with raw compute, such as simulation or rendering tasks, the LX ULTRA's 36% higher FP32 figure suggests an advantage. The LX ULTRA also carries more memory capacity at 24 GB versus 16 GB, which supports larger datasets and higher-resolution textures. However, the Playstation GPU has a wider 256-bit memory bus delivering 576.0 GB/s bandwidth, compared to the LX ULTRA's 192-bit bus at 432.0 GB/s. This 33% bandwidth advantage for the Playstation GPU could reduce memory bottlenecks in bandwidth-sensitive applications. The LX ULTRA uses a 16-pin power connector and lists a 550 W suggested PSU, while the Playstation GPU does not disclose connector or PSU requirements. The LX ULTRA is a dual-slot card with four DisplayPort 1.4a outputs, whereas the Playstation GPU offers one HDMI 2.1 and one USB Type-C output. The Playstation GPU is a console component with dimensions of 386 mm length, 216 mm height, and 89 mm width, while the LX ULTRA is a standard expansion card at 268 mm length, 112 mm height, and 40 mm width.
