Analysis: Intel Arc Graphics 64EU Mobile vs Lisuan Tech LX MAX
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The recorded data contains no direct head-to-head benchmark results between the Intel Arc Graphics 64EU Mobile and the Lisuan Tech LX MAX. Neither GPU has an average benchmark score recorded, and the wins counter for each is zero. This absence of comparative testing data means any performance ranking must be inferred entirely from the architectural and specification differences documented in the database.
The Intel Arc Graphics 64EU Mobile delivers 1.792 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, while the Lisuan Tech LX MAX delivers 24.58 TFLOPS. That is a 13.7 times higher raw floating-point throughput for the Lisuan part. In FP16 workloads, the Intel GPU reaches 3.584 TFLOPS (2:1) versus 49.15 TFLOPS (2:1) for the LX MAX, a 13.7 times gap as well. Pixel throughput shows a similar pattern: the Intel part renders 28.00 GPixel/s, while the LX MAX reaches 192.0 GPixel/s, a 6.9 times advantage. Texture fill rates are 56.00 GTexel/s for Intel and 384.0 GTexel/s for Lisuan, a 6.9 times difference.
Memory bandwidth is another decisive separator. The Intel Arc Graphics 64EU Mobile uses System Shared memory with bandwidth described as System Dependent, meaning its effective throughput depends entirely on the host platform's memory configuration. The Lisuan Tech LX MAX has dedicated 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192 bit bus, delivering 432.0 GB/s. That fixed, dedicated bandwidth is a fundamental advantage for the LX MAX in any memory-intensive workload, as it does not compete with the CPU for system memory access.
The shading unit count reinforces the compute gap. Intel's GPU has 512 shading units, while the LX MAX has 6144. Texture mapping units number 32 versus 192, and raster output pipelines number 16 versus 96. Each of these differences scales consistently with the raw throughput figures, indicating that the LX MAX is designed for substantially heavier graphics workloads.
The pixel rate and texture rate numbers translate directly to practical outcomes. A GPU with 192.0 GPixel/s can drive high-resolution displays with complex shading effects more comfortably than one with 28.00 GPixel/s. Similarly, 384.0 GTexel/s allows for much higher texture sampling rates in scenes with detailed surfaces. Benchmark results, when they are eventually recorded, would be expected to show the LX MAX leading by wide margins across all standard graphics tests.
Both GPUs share the same percentile ranking of 50 against all GPUs in the database, but this appears to be a default placeholder rather than a measured statistic, given that both have an average benchmark score of zero. The absence of nearest rivals data for either part means no external comparison points exist in the database to anchor their relative standing.

Architecture Differences
The two GPUs come from entirely different architectural lineages. The Intel Arc Graphics 64EU Mobile uses the Xe-LPG architecture, part of the Meteor Lake chip generation, and belongs to the Arc Graphics-M (Meteor Lake) generation. The Lisuan Tech LX MAX uses a TrueGPU architecture, part of the 7G100 generation, built around the 7G106 chip. These are not incremental revisions of the same design; they are fundamentally different approaches to graphics processing.
The process node gap is significant. Intel fabricates its GPU on a 10 nm process at its own foundry, while TSMC fabricates the Lisuan chip on a 6 nm process. A smaller process node typically allows for higher transistor density and improved power efficiency, though the database does not list transistor counts or die sizes for either part to quantify this directly.
The shading architecture differs in scale. The Intel GPU has 512 shading units, 32 TMUs, and 16 ROPs. The Lisuan GPU has 6144 shading units, 192 TMUs, and 96 ROPs. This is a 12 times increase in shading units, a 6 times increase in TMUs, and a 6 times increase in ROPs. The ratio of shading units to TMUs is 16:1 for Intel and 32:1 for Lisuan, indicating a different balance between compute and texture processing.
Neither GPU lists dedicated ray tracing cores or tensor cores in the database. The Intel part supports DirectX 12 (12_1), while the Lisuan part supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), which includes features like mesh shaders and variable rate shading. Vulkan support is 1.4 for Intel and 1.3 for Lisuan, so Intel has a slight API version advantage there.
Memory architecture is a fundamental difference. Intel's GPU relies on System Shared memory, meaning it uses the host system's RAM with no dedicated VRAM. The Lisuan GPU has its own 12 GB of GDDR6 on a 192 bit bus. This changes how each GPU accesses data: the Intel part must coordinate with the CPU for memory access, while the Lisuan part has independent, dedicated memory bandwidth.
The bus interface also differs. Intel uses a Ring Bus, typically found in integrated graphics implementations, while Lisuan uses PCIe 4.0 x16, a standard discrete card interface. Display outputs are Portable Device Dependent for Intel, while Lisuan provides 4x DisplayPort 1.4a connectors.

The Verdict
The data shows two GPUs at opposite ends of the performance spectrum. The Lisuan Tech LX MAX dominates every quantitative metric that matters for graphics throughput: FP32 compute is 13.7 times higher, pixel rate is 6.9 times higher, texture rate is 6.9 times higher, and memory bandwidth is fixed at 432.0 GB/s versus a system-dependent variable for Intel. The LX MAX also has 12 times more shading units, 6 times more TMUs, and 6 times more ROPs.
The Intel Arc Graphics 64EU Mobile is an integrated GPU with a 65 W TDP, designed for portable devices where space and power are constrained. The Lisuan Tech LX MAX is a dual-slot discrete card with a 225 W TDP, requiring a 550 W power supply and a PCIe 4.0 x16 slot. These are not competing products in the same market segment; they serve entirely different use cases.
The release dates reinforce this split. Intel's GPU launched in December 2023, while Lisuan's card is dated March 2026. The Lisuan part is newer by more than two years and uses a more advanced 6 nm process from TSMC, which explains part of its massive performance advantage.
For workloads that demand maximum graphics throughput, the Lisuan Tech LX MAX is the clear choice based on every recorded specification. For integrated graphics in a portable device where power consumption is a primary constraint, the Intel Arc Graphics 64EU Mobile is the only option of the two that fits that form factor.
Where Each One Wins
The Lisuan Tech LX MAX wins in every compute and rendering category recorded in the database. Its 24.58 TFLOPS FP32 and 49.15 TFLOPS FP16 performance make it suited for heavy 3D rendering, GPU compute workloads, and high-resolution gaming. The 12 GB of GDDR6 with 432.0 GB/s bandwidth supports large textures and complex scenes without memory bottlenecks. The 192.0 GPixel/s pixel rate and 384.0 GTexel/s texture rate indicate capacity for high refresh rate rendering at high resolutions. DirectX 12 Ultimate support adds modern rendering features such as mesh shaders and variable rate shading.
The Intel Arc Graphics 64EU Mobile wins in power efficiency and integration. Its 65 W TDP is 160 W lower than the Lisuan part, and its IGP form factor means it requires no additional power connectors or expansion slot. The Ring Bus interface allows direct integration with the host processor. Vulkan 1.4 support is newer than the Lisuan card's Vulkan 1.3, giving it a small API version advantage for Vulkan-based applications. Portable Device Dependent display outputs indicate flexibility for laptop or compact device implementations.
The Intel GPU's System Shared memory means it has no dedicated VRAM cost and can use whatever system memory is available, which suits lightweight tasks. Its 1.792 TFLOPS FP32 and 28.00 GPixel/s pixel rate are sufficient for basic graphics output and light 3D workloads. The 512 shading units handle standard desktop compositing and video decoding tasks without issue.
For users with a desktop system with a 550 W or higher power supply and a PCIe 4.0 x16 slot, the Lisuan Tech LX MAX provides massively higher raw performance across the board. For users with a portable device that relies on integrated graphics, the Intel Arc Graphics 64EU Mobile is the relevant part. The database shows no overlap in their target environments, and no benchmark data exists to suggest any scenario where the Intel GPU would outperform the Lisuan card on raw graphics throughput.
