Intel Arc 130T Mobile vs Lisuan Tech LX MAX Comparison

Intel Arc 130T Mobile is an integrated graphics processor built on Intel’s Arrow Lake-H chip, using the Xe-LPG+ architecture and a 5 nm TSMC process. Lisuan Tech LX MAX is a discrete, dual-slot add-in card based on the 7G106 chip with the TrueGPU architecture on a 6 nm TSMC process. The data shows two fundamentally different products: one is a low-power mobile IGP, the other is a high-power desktop graphics card. The LX MAX is the clear performance leader across every measurable compute and memory metric, while the Arc 130T Mobile occupies a separate niche as an integrated solution for portable devices.

Where Each One Wins

The Lisuan Tech LX MAX wins in raw compute throughput, memory bandwidth, and pixel processing. Its FP32 rate is 24.58 TFLOPS, which is over six times the 3.942 TFLOPS of the Intel Arc 130T Mobile. FP16 performance follows the same pattern: 49.15 TFLOPS versus 7.885 TFLOPS. Texture fill rate is 384.0 GTexel/s on the LX MAX, compared to 123.2 GTexel/s on the Arc 130T Mobile, a margin of roughly 3.1 times. Pixel fill rate is 192.0 GPixel/s versus 61.60 GPixel/s, placing the LX MAX ahead by a factor of about 3.1 as well. The LX MAX also has dedicated memory: 12 GB of GDDR6 on a 192 bit bus with 432.0 GB/s bandwidth. The Arc 130T Mobile uses system shared memory with system dependent bandwidth, which means it cannot match the dedicated memory bandwidth of the discrete card.

The Intel Arc 130T Mobile wins in power efficiency and portability. Its TDP is 35 W, versus 225 W for the LX MAX. The Arc 130T Mobile is an IGP with no power connectors and no suggested PSU, while the LX MAX requires a 1x 16-pin power connector and a 550 W suggested PSU. The Arc 130T Mobile is integrated into the processor package, so it takes no expansion slot space, whereas the LX MAX is dual-slot with dimensions of 248 mm in length, 118 mm in height, and 48 mm in width. For mobile and compact systems, the Arc 130T Mobile is the only viable option of the two. The LX MAX also supports a higher Vulkan version: 1.4 on the Arc 130T Mobile versus 1.3 on the LX MAX. DirectX support is identical at 12 Ultimate (12_2), and OpenGL is identical at 4.6.

Architecture Differences

The Intel Arc 130T Mobile is based on the Xe-LPG+ architecture, which is Intel’s graphics architecture for Arrow Lake-H mobile processors. It uses the 5 nm TSMC process node. The LX MAX uses the TrueGPU architecture on the 6 nm TSMC process node. The Arc 130T Mobile is part of the Arc Graphics-M (Arrow Lake) generation, while the LX MAX belongs to the 7G100 generation. The Arc 130T Mobile has a base clock of 300 MHz and a boost clock of 2200 MHz. The LX MAX has no base or boost clock listed in the database, but its memory clock is 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective data rate.

The compute unit configurations differ substantially. The Arc 130T Mobile has 896 shading units, 56 texture mapping units, 28 ROPs, and 7 ray tracing cores. The LX MAX has 6144 shading units, 192 TMUs, and 96 ROPs, with no ray tracing core count listed. The LX MAX therefore has about 6.9 times the shading units, 3.4 times the TMUs, and 3.4 times the ROPs. The Arc 130T Mobile lists ray tracing cores, which the LX MAX does not, but the overall throughput advantage of the LX MAX is decisive.

Memory architecture is a major differentiator. The Arc 130T Mobile uses system shared memory, with the memory type, bus width, and bandwidth all listed as system dependent. The LX MAX has its own dedicated memory subsystem: 12 GB of GDDR6 on a 192 bit bus, delivering 432.0 GB/s bandwidth. This dedicated memory removes the dependency on system RAM and system memory bandwidth, which is a structural advantage for the discrete card. The Arc 130T Mobile has no transistor count or die size listed, and neither does the LX MAX, so die-level comparison is not possible from the recorded data.

The interface and power delivery also differ. The Arc 130T Mobile uses an IGP bus interface with no power connectors and a 35 W TDP. The LX MAX uses PCIe 4.0 x16, requires a 1x 16-pin power connector, has a 225 W TDP, and needs a 550 W suggested PSU. The display outputs differ as well: the Arc 130T Mobile display outputs are portable device dependent, while the LX MAX provides 4x DisplayPort 1.4a. The LX MAX is dual-slot and measures 248 mm by 118 mm by 48 mm. The Arc 130T Mobile has no dimensions listed, consistent with its integrated nature.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark entries, no wins for either product, and no nearest rival comparisons with scores or delta percentages. The comparison must therefore be made from the recorded specification data. The largest single advantage for the LX MAX is in FP32 compute. The LX MAX delivers 24.58 TFLOPS, which is 6.2 times the 3.942 TFLOPS of the Arc 130T Mobile. FP16 shows a similar ratio: 49.15 TFLOPS versus 7.885 TFLOPS, a 6.2 times advantage. These ratios indicate that the LX MAX is in a completely different performance class for compute-heavy workloads.

Texture and pixel throughput show smaller but still large margins. The LX MAX achieves 384.0 GTexel/s against 123.2 GTexel/s for the Arc 130T Mobile, a 3.1 times advantage. Pixel rate is 192.0 GPixel/s versus 61.60 GPixel/s, also a 3.1 times advantage. The consistency of these ratios reflects the relative counts of TMUs and ROPs: 192 versus 56 for texture units, and 96 versus 28 for ROPs. The shading unit ratio is higher, 6144 versus 896, which is why FP32 and FP16 scale to 6.2 times rather than 3.1 times.

Memory bandwidth is another decisive win for the LX MAX. Dedicated GDDR6 memory provides 432.0 GB/s, while the Arc 130T Mobile has system dependent bandwidth with no fixed figure. The 12 GB memory capacity of the LX MAX is fixed and dedicated, whereas the Arc 130T Mobile shares system memory with no dedicated capacity. This means the LX MAX can sustain memory-heavy workloads without competing with the CPU for bandwidth. The Arc 130T Mobile has no listed memory clock, base clock, or boost clock for its memory, and its graphics clocks are 300 MHz base and 2200 MHz boost. The LX MAX has no graphics clock figures listed, so clock-to-clock comparison is not possible.

The Arc 130T Mobile has one API advantage: Vulkan 1.4 support versus Vulkan 1.3 on the LX MAX. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2) and OpenGL 4.6. The Arc 130T Mobile also has 7 ray tracing cores, which the LX MAX does not list. However, the absence of a listed ray tracing core count for the LX MAX does not provide a performance comparison; it only indicates a missing data field. The overall benchmark picture from the recorded data is one-sided: the LX MAX wins every performance metric where both products have figures.

The Verdict

The Lisuan Tech LX MAX is the performance choice. It leads in FP32 compute by 6.2 times, FP16 compute by 6.2 times, texture fill rate by 3.1 times, and pixel fill rate by 3.1 times. It has 12 GB of dedicated GDDR6 memory with 432.0 GB/s bandwidth, while the Arc 130T Mobile relies on system shared memory with no fixed bandwidth. The LX MAX also has a much larger shading unit count at 6144 versus 896. For any workload that depends on raw throughput, dedicated memory bandwidth, or high-resolution pixel processing, the data points clearly to the LX MAX.

The Intel Arc 130T Mobile is the choice for integrated, low-power, mobile use. Its 35 W TDP is dramatically lower than the 225 W TDP of the LX MAX, and it requires no power connectors, no suggested PSU, and no expansion slot. It is an IGP built into the Arrow Lake-H processor, making it suitable for portable devices where a dual-slot, 248 mm card cannot fit. The Arc 130T Mobile also has the newer Vulkan API at 1.4 versus 1.3, and it lists ray tracing cores that the LX MAX does not. The specification data shows two different product categories: the LX MAX is a high-power discrete desktop card, and the Arc 130T Mobile is an integrated mobile GPU. Buyers choosing between them are actually choosing between a desktop discrete solution and a mobile integrated solution, and the recorded data supports the LX MAX for performance and the Arc 130T Mobile for portability and efficiency.
