Architecture Differences

The Intel Arc Pro B50 is built on the BMG-G21 chip with the Xe2-HPG architecture, part of the Battlemage (Pro Series) generation. It uses a 5 nm process at TSMC with 19,600 million transistors on a 272 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 72.1M per mm². The Lisuan Tech LX MAX uses the 7G106 chip with the TrueGPU architecture from the 7G100 generation, fabricated on a 6 nm process at TSMC. The database records no transistor count, die size, or density for the Lisuan part.

The Intel card features 2048 shading units, 128 texture mapping units, and 16 ROPs, along with 16 dedicated ray tracing cores. The Lisuan Tech LX MAX is configured with 6144 shading units, 192 TMUs, and 96 ROPs, but lists no ray tracing cores. The shading unit count gives the Lisuan part a theoretical FP32 throughput of 24.58 TFLOPS versus 10.65 TFLOPS for the Intel card, and FP16 performance of 49.15 TFLOPS versus 21.30 TFLOPS (both at a 2:1 ratio).

Memory architecture differs substantially. The Intel Arc Pro B50 uses 16 GB GDDR6 across a 128-bit bus, delivering 224.0 GB/s bandwidth with memory clocked at 1750 MHz (14 Gbps effective). The Lisuan Tech LX MAX carries 12 GB GDDR6 on a wider 192-bit bus, achieving 432.0 GB/s bandwidth with memory rated at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective). The bandwidth advantage is significant, nearly double that of the Intel card.

Interface and connectivity also diverge. The Intel Arc Pro B50 uses PCIe 5.0 x8 and outputs to 4x mini-DisplayPort 2.1. The Lisuan Tech LX MAX uses PCIe 4.0 x16 and provides 4x DisplayPort 1.4a. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2) and OpenGL 4.6, but the Intel card supports Vulkan 1.4 while the Lisuan part supports Vulkan 1.3.

Physical dimensions differ notably. The Intel Arc Pro B50 measures 167 mm in length, 69 mm in height, and 40 mm in width, requiring a suggested power supply of 250 W. The Lisuan Tech LX MAX is larger at 248 mm long, 118 mm high, and 48 mm wide, with a suggested power supply of 550 W. Both are dual-slot cards, but the Lisuan card requires a 1x 16-pin power connector while the Intel card draws power entirely from the slot.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark comparisons between these two GPUs. The Intel Arc Pro B50 has eight recorded benchmark scores, while the Lisuan Tech LX MAX has none. This makes a direct numerical comparison impossible from the recorded data.

The Intel Arc Pro B50's benchmark results show a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 1604, a Passmark G3D score of 12553, and a Passmark GPU Compute score of 6037. Its Passmark DirectX scores are 58 for DX10, 100 for DX11, 64 for DX12, and 144 for DX9, with a G2D score of 717. The Lisuan Tech LX MAX has no recorded scores in any test.

The Intel card's nearest rivals in the database include the NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030 with an average score of 2662 (delta of -0.1%), the NVIDIA Quadro K1100M at 2664 (-0.2%), the NVIDIA GeForce GT 440 at 2645 (+0.6%), and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 SUPER at 2690 (-1.1%). These deltas indicate the Intel card sits within roughly one percent of these competing products, with the GT 440 being the closest competitor ahead of it.

For the Lisuan Tech LX MAX, no rival data exists in the database, so its relative positioning cannot be established through that route. Its specifications, however, suggest a higher performance class than the Intel card based on raw compute and memory bandwidth figures.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Arc Pro B50 holds advantages in several areas. Its 70 W TDP with no external power connectors makes it a low-power solution suitable for systems with modest power supplies, and its 250 W suggested PSU reflects that. The card's 167 mm length and 40 mm width allow installation in compact chassis. Its PCIe 5.0 x8 interface provides high bandwidth potential for systems equipped with that standard. The display outputs use the newer DisplayPort 2.1 standard with four mini-DisplayPort connectors, and Vulkan 1.4 support is a generation ahead of the Lisuan card's Vulkan 1.3. The 16 GB memory capacity exceeds the Lisuan card's 12 GB, which benefits workloads with large datasets that fit within the frame buffer.

The Lisuan Tech LX MAX wins on raw computing metrics. Its FP32 throughput of 24.58 TFLOPS is 2.31 times that of the Intel card. The 192.0 GPixel/s pixel rate is 4.61 times higher, and the 384.0 GTexel/s texture rate is 1.15 times higher. Memory bandwidth of 432.0 GB/s is 1.93 times greater, despite the smaller capacity. The 6144 shading units and 96 ROPs provide a substantially larger execution footprint. The card's PCIe 4.0 x16 interface, while an older standard than the Intel card's PCIe 5.0, still offers the full x16 lane count for data transfer. The 192-bit memory bus enables the bandwidth advantage, and the 18 Gbps effective memory speed is faster than the Intel card's 14 Gbps.

The release dates differ, with the Intel card launched on 2025-09-04 and the Lisuan card on 2026-03-16, making the Lisuan part the more recent product by roughly six months. The Intel card has a recorded launch MSRP of 349 USD.

The Verdict

The data shows two GPUs with very different design goals. The Intel Arc Pro B50 is a low-power professional card with a 70 W TDP, no external power requirement, compact dimensions, and 16 GB of memory. Its benchmark scores place it in the 17th percentile of all GPUs, with an average score of 2660 that sits within one percent of the NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030, Quadro K1100M, GeForce GT 440, and GeForce RTX 5070 SUPER in the database.

The Lisuan Tech LX MAX presents a higher-performance specification sheet with 24.58 TFLOPS FP32, 432.0 GB/s memory bandwidth, and 192.0 GPixel/s pixel rate, but the database contains no benchmark scores to confirm its real-world performance. Its 225 W TDP and 1x 16-pin power connector indicate a much higher power draw, and its larger physical footprint requires more installation space.

For users seeking a card with recorded benchmark validation, low power consumption, and modern display output standards, the Intel Arc Pro B50 is the only option with measured performance data. Its 16 GB frame buffer and compact design suit systems where power and space are constrained.

For users prioritizing raw compute specifications and memory bandwidth, the Lisuan Tech LX MAX offers materially higher theoretical throughput across every compute metric, but without benchmark scores in the database, its realized performance remains unverified. The choice between these two cards depends on whether the user values verified benchmark results and efficiency or higher theoretical specifications and newer release timing.
