Architecture Differences

The AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE and the Lisuan Tech LX MAX represent two distinctly different design philosophies. The AMD part belongs to the Radeon RX 9000 series and uses the Navi 48 chip built on RDNA 4.0 architecture. It is fabricated on a 4 nm process at TSMC and packs 53,900 million transistors into a 357 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 151.0M per mm². The Lisuan Tech LX MAX uses the 7G106 chip with TrueGPU architecture from the 7G100 generation, built on a 6 nm TSMC process. Its transistor count and die size are not recorded in the database.

The shading unit count is the most dramatic divergence. The LX MAX carries 6144 shading units, exactly double the 3072 of the RX 9070 GRE. Both cards have identical TMU counts at 192 and identical ROP counts at 96. The AMD card features 48 ray tracing cores, while the Lisuan Tech part has no recorded RT core count. Neither card lists tensor cores.

Compute throughput tells a nuanced story. The RX 9070 GRE achieves 34.28 TFLOPS in both FP32 and FP16 with a 1:1 ratio. The LX MAX delivers 24.58 TFLOPS FP32 but scales to 49.15 TFLOPS FP16 with a 2:1 ratio. This suggests the LX MAX is tuned for workloads that leverage reduced precision, while the AMD card maintains consistent throughput across precision formats.

The memory subsystem is identical on paper: 12 GB GDDR6, 192-bit bus, 432.0 GB/s bandwidth, and matching memory clocks. Interface differences appear elsewhere. The RX 9070 GRE uses PCIe 5.0 x16, while the LX MAX uses PCIe 4.0 x16. Display outputs also differ: the AMD card offers 1x HDMI 2.1b and 3x DisplayPort 2.1a, while the Lisuan part provides 4x DisplayPort 1.4a with no HDMI. API support shows the AMD card with Vulkan 1.4 versus Vulkan 1.3 on the LX MAX, while both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2) and OpenGL 4.6.

The LX MAX has a slightly higher TDP at 225 W against 220 W for the RX 9070 GRE. Physical dimensions are recorded for the LX MAX at 248 mm length, 118 mm height, and 48 mm width, while the AMD card's dimensions are not listed. Both are dual-slot designs with a 550 W suggested PSU. The Lisuan Tech card uses a single 16-pin power connector; the AMD card uses two 8-pin connectors. The LX MAX has a later release date of 2026-03-16 compared to the RX 9070 GRE's 2025-05-07.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark entries between the AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE and the Lisuan Tech LX MAX. However, the recorded data for each card provides a basis for comparison.

The RX 9070 GRE has two published benchmark scores. In 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, it scores 5424. In Geekbench OpenCL, it scores 109309. Its average benchmark score across recorded tests is 57367, placing it in the 87th percentile of all GPUs in the database. The LX MAX has no recorded benchmark scores and an average benchmark score of 0, placing it in the 50th percentile.

The nearest rivals for the RX 9070 GRE show how its average score positions against other hardware. The Intel Arc A580 holds an average score of 57756, which is 0.7% higher than the RX 9070 GRE. The AMD Radeon RX 5600 OEM sits at 58085, 1.2% higher. The Intel Arc A570M records 58239, 1.5% higher. The AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT reaches 58392, 1.8% higher. These margins are tight, indicating the RX 9070 GRE clusters with a group of cards within a narrow performance band.

The LX MAX has no nearest rivals listed and no benchmark entries, so its measured performance cannot be positioned against other GPUs in the database. The absence of benchmark data for the Lisuan Tech part means the only computable comparisons come from theoretical specifications.

Looking at the raw compute numbers, the RX 9070 GRE leads in FP32 with 34.28 TFLOPS versus 24.58 TFLOPS, a difference of roughly 39%. Its pixel rate of 267.8 GPixel/s exceeds the LX MAX's 192.0 GPixel/s by about 39.5%. Texture rates show the AMD card at 535.7 GTexel/s against 384.0 GTexel/s for the Lisuan part, a gap of approximately 39.5% as well. The LX MAX counters in FP16 throughput with 49.15 TFLOPS versus 34.28 TFLOPS, a lead of about 43%, thanks to its 2:1 FP16 ratio.

The shading unit advantage for the LX MAX does not translate into higher FP32 output, which indicates that the AMD architecture extracts more per-shader performance. The RX 9070 GRE achieves 34.28 TFLOPS from 3072 shaders, while the LX MAX needs 6144 shaders to reach 24.58 TFLOPS. Per-shader FP32 throughput is roughly 11.16 GFLOPS per shader for the AMD card versus about 4.00 GFLOPS per shader for the Lisuan Tech card.

The Verdict

The recorded data favors the AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE in measured performance. It holds an average benchmark score of 57367 and an 87th percentile ranking, while the Lisuan Tech LX MAX has no benchmark scores and sits at the 50th percentile. The RX 9070 GRE also leads in FP32 compute, pixel rate, and texture rate, and it supports the newer PCIe 5.0 interface, Vulkan 1.4, and DisplayPort 2.1a outputs.

The Lisuan Tech LX MAX has structural advantages that could matter in specific workloads. Its 6144 shading units, double the AMD card's count, and its 49.15 TFLOPS FP16 throughput indicate a design aimed at reduced-precision compute tasks. The identical memory configuration ensures both cards have the same capacity and bandwidth ceiling.

For general rendering and DX12 workloads, the data indicates the RX 9070 GRE is the stronger choice. Its measured 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 5424 and Geekbench OpenCL score of 109309 demonstrate real-world validation, and its percentile placement confirms it competes with cards like the Intel Arc A580 and AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT within a 1.8% band.

For compute tasks that favor FP16 throughput, the LX MAX's 49.15 TFLOPS could provide an edge, but no benchmark data exists to confirm this in practice. The RX 9070 GRE also carries a recorded launch MSRP of 549 USD, while the LX MAX has no launch MSRP listed.

The production status for both cards is Active. The RX 9070 GRE was released on 2025-05-07, and the LX MAX followed on 2026-03-16. The AMD card has a predecessor in Navi III, while the Lisuan Tech card lists none.
