Analysis: Intel Arc Graphics 48EU Mobile vs Lisuan Tech LX 7G100
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The database contains no recorded head-to-head benchmark results for the Intel Arc Graphics 48EU Mobile and the Lisuan Tech LX 7G100. Both entries show an average benchmark score of zero, and the head-to-head benchmark array is empty. This means there are no direct performance comparisons available from our measurements. The absence of data does not indicate parity; it simply reflects that no standardized benchmark runs have been logged for either product in the current database.
What can be compared directly is the theoretical throughput derived from the recorded specifications. The Lisuan Tech LX 7G100 delivers 24.58 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, while the Intel Arc Graphics 48EU Mobile delivers 1,382.4 GFLOPS. Converting the Intel figure to TFLOPS yields approximately 1.38 TFLOPS. The Lisuan part therefore shows roughly 17.8 times the FP32 throughput on paper. In FP16, the Lisuan part reaches 49.15 TFLOPS (2:1), while the Intel part reaches 2.765 TFLOPS (2:1), a similar magnitude of separation.
Pixel throughput follows the same pattern. The LX 7G100 records 192.0 GPixel/s, while the Intel iGPU records 14.40 GPixel/s. Texture rate shows 384.0 GTexel/s for the Lisuan part versus 43.20 GTexel/s for the Intel part, a factor of roughly 8.9. These figures are derived from the shading units, texture mapping units, and raster operation units listed in the database, so they represent architectural limits rather than real-world application results.
The percentile ranking for both entries is 50.0 relative to all GPUs in the database. This places both products at the median of the recorded distribution, though this ranking is based on the same empty benchmark set and should not be read as a performance equivalence claim. The percentile values are identical because both entries lack benchmark history.
Memory bandwidth separates the two decisively. The LX 7G100 uses 12 GB of GDDR6 across a 192 bit bus, producing 432.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The Intel Arc Graphics 48EU Mobile relies on system shared memory, with bandwidth listed as system dependent. No fixed bandwidth figure exists for the Intel part, so a direct numerical comparison is impossible, but the dedicated GDDR6 implementation on the Lisuan part provides a fixed, high-bandwidth path that shared memory cannot guarantee.
Clock behavior differs in availability of data. The Intel part has a base clock of 300 MHz and a boost clock of 1800 MHz. The Lisuan part has no recorded base or boost clock values, only a memory clock of 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective. Without clock data for the LX 7G100, the compute rate differences must be attributed to the combination of shading unit count and memory configuration rather than clock speed.
Where Each One Wins
The Intel Arc Graphics 48EU Mobile wins in power efficiency and physical integration. Its 28 W TDP fits within the envelope of a mobile processor's integrated graphics block, and its slot width is listed as IGP, meaning it does not occupy an expansion slot. The bus interface is Ring Bus, which ties it directly to the processor's internal fabric. The Lisuan Tech LX 7G100, by contrast, draws 225 W, requires a dual-slot cooler, uses a PCIe 4.0 x16 interface, and needs a 550 W suggested power supply with a single 8-pin power connector. For systems where power draw and physical footprint are the primary constraints, the Intel part is the only viable option from these two.
The Lisuan Tech LX 7G100 wins in raw compute, memory capacity, and display connectivity. Its 6144 shading units dwarf the Intel part's 384 shading units. Its 24 TMUs and 8 ROPs compare unfavorably to the Lisuan part's 192 TMUs and 96 ROPs. The 12 GB GDDR6 frame buffer with 432.0 GB/s bandwidth provides a dedicated memory pool, while the Intel part shares system memory with the host CPU. The Lisuan part also offers four DisplayPort 1.4a outputs, whereas the Intel part's display outputs are listed as portable device dependent, meaning the number and type of outputs depend on the laptop design.
The Intel part supports Vulkan 1.4, while the Lisuan part supports Vulkan 1.3. This gives the Intel iGPU a newer API version for Vulkan workloads. Both parts support OpenGL 4.6. The Intel part lists DirectX 12 (12_1) support, while the Lisuan part lists DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), which includes feature level 12_2 features such as ray tracing and mesh shaders in the DirectX feature set. The database does not list dedicated ray tracing cores for either product, so any DXR or Vulkan ray tracing capability would be handled through the general compute pipeline.
The Intel part has a release date of 2023-12-13, while the Lisuan part has a release date of 2026-06-17. The Intel part lists HD Graphics-M as its predecessor. The Lisuan part has no predecessor listed. Both products are marked as active in production status.
The Verdict
The recorded data supports a clear split. The Intel Arc Graphics 48EU Mobile is a low-power integrated solution for portable devices. Its 28 W TDP, IGP slot width, Ring Bus interface, and system dependent display outputs all point to a chip designed to sit inside a laptop or compact device where discrete graphics is not an option. Its 384 shading units and 1,382.4 GFLOPS FP32 throughput are modest figures, and its system shared memory means performance will scale with the host system's memory speed and capacity.
The Lisuan Tech LX 7G100 is a discrete, dual-slot expansion card aimed at workloads that need substantial compute and memory bandwidth. Its 24.58 TFLOPS FP32, 12 GB GDDR6, 432.0 GB/s bandwidth, and 225 W TDP place it in a different performance class entirely. Its PCIe 4.0 x16 interface and four DisplayPort 1.4a outputs indicate a desktop-oriented product meant to be installed in a full tower or workstation.
The database shows no overlapping use case. A system that can only accommodate an integrated GPU cannot use the LX 7G100, which needs a PCIe x16 slot, a dual-slot cooler, an 8-pin power connector, and a 550 W power supply. A system that needs the LX 7G100's compute and memory capacity would find the Intel part's shared memory and 28 W power envelope insufficient for the same workloads. The only shared traits are OpenGL 4.6 support, active production status, and the 50.0 percentile ranking, which is an artifact of empty benchmark arrays. The choice between the two is determined by the host platform, not by performance preference.

Architecture Differences
The Intel Arc Graphics 48EU Mobile uses Intel's Meteor Lake chip with the Xe-LPG architecture, manufactured on a 10 nm process at Intel's own foundry. The Lisuan Tech LX 7G100 uses the 7G106 chip with the TrueGPU architecture, manufactured on a 6 nm process at TSMC. The process node difference, 10 nm versus 6 nm, indicates a more advanced fabrication process for the Lisuan part, though the database does not provide transistor counts or die sizes for either product.
The Intel part belongs to the Arc Graphics-M generation under Meteor Lake, with HD Graphics-M listed as its predecessor. The Lisuan part belongs to the 7G100 generation, with no predecessor recorded. The Intel part uses a Ring Bus interface, which is typical for integrated GPUs connected directly to the processor die. The Lisuan part uses PCIe 4.0 x16, a standard discrete expansion interface.
Shading unit counts differ substantially. The Intel part has 384 shading units, 24 texture mapping units, and 8 raster operation units. The Lisuan part has 6144 shading units, 192 texture mapping units, and 96 raster operation units. The Lisuan part's texture rate of 384.0 GTexel/s and pixel rate of 192.0 GPixel/s scale with these counts. The Intel part's texture rate of 43.20 GTexel/s and pixel rate of 14.40 GPixel/s are correspondingly lower.
Neither product lists dedicated ray tracing cores or tensor cores in the database. The Lisuan part's DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2) support implies feature-level support for DirectX ray tracing and mesh shaders, but the hardware implementation is not detailed. The Intel part's DirectX 12 (12_1) support stops short of the 12_2 feature level.
Memory architecture differs fundamentally. The Intel part uses system shared memory with no dedicated capacity, bandwidth, or bus width of its own. The Lisuan part has 12 GB of GDDR6, a 192 bit bus, and 432.0 GB/s bandwidth, with a memory clock of 2250 MHz and 18 Gbps effective data rate. This dedicated memory subsystem decouples the Lisuan part's performance from host system memory.
