Where Each One Wins

The Intel Arc Pro B60 is the only card in this comparison with measured performance data. Its 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score is 2646, and its PassMark G3D score is 14580. The PassMark suite shows a G2D score of 763 and a GPU compute score of 7029. Legacy DirectX tests record 179 for DX9, 122 for DX11, 76 for DX12, and 61 for DX10. These numbers establish a concrete performance baseline.

The Lisuan Tech LX MAX has no recorded wins in the database because no benchmark results exist for it. Its specifications, however, indicate a different design target. The LX MAX doubles the FP32 throughput to 24.58 TFLOPS and carries 6144 shading units versus 2560 for the B60. Texture and pixel rates are identical at 384.0 GTexel/s and 192.0 GPixel/s, respectively, so the LX MAX does not gain in those areas despite the larger shader count.

The B60 wins on memory capacity with 24 GB versus 12 GB, and it has a slight bandwidth advantage at 456.0 GB/s versus 432.0 GB/s. The B60 also supports PCIe 5.0 x8, while the LX MAX uses PCIe 4.0 x16. For API support, the B60 lists Vulkan 1.4; the LX MAX lists Vulkan 1.3. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2) and OpenGL 4.6.

The LX MAX wins on raw compute specifications and a newer process node. It is built on a 6 nm TSMC process, while the B60 uses a 5 nm TSMC process. The LX MAX also has a higher TDP at 225 W versus 200 W, which may allow sustained compute loads, but no measured data confirms this.

Architecture Differences

The Intel Arc Pro B60 uses the BMG-G21 chip with the Xe2-HPG architecture, part of the Battlemage (Pro Series) generation. It is fabricated on a 5 nm TSMC process with 19,600 million transistors on a 272 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 72.1M per mm². The architecture includes 20 ray tracing cores, 2560 shading units, 160 TMUs, and 80 ROPs. The B60 supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4.

The Lisuan Tech LX MAX uses the 7G106 chip with the TrueGPU architecture, part of the 7G100 generation. It is fabricated on a 6 nm TSMC process. The database lists no transistor count, die size, or transistor density for this chip. The LX MAX has 6144 shading units, 192 TMUs, and 96 ROPs. It has no listed ray tracing cores or tensor cores. API support includes DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.3.

The fundamental architectural split is compute-oriented versus feature-oriented. The LX MAX dedicates a much larger shader array (6144 units) to raw parallel throughput. The B60 counters with dedicated ray tracing hardware (20 RT cores) and a newer API version for Vulkan. The B60 also has a smaller, denser process node at 5 nm versus 6 nm, which explains its lower TDP despite a smaller shader count.

The B60's memory clock runs at 2375 MHz (19 Gbps effective), while the LX MAX runs at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective). Both use 192-bit buses, but the B60's higher memory clock yields 456.0 GB/s versus 432.0 GB/s. The B60 also uses a PCIe 5.0 x8 interface, which provides a newer generation link, though the LX MAX's PCIe 4.0 x16 has more lanes.

Specification Differences

The two cards differ across nearly every specification field. The Intel Arc Pro B60 has 2560 shading units, 160 TMUs, and 80 ROPs. The Lisuan Tech LX MAX has 6144 shading units, 192 TMUs, and 96 ROPs. The LX MAX leads in raw counts across all three categories.

Memory capacity differs by a factor of two: 24 GB for the B60 versus 12 GB for the LX MAX. Both use GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus. Bandwidth is 456.0 GB/s for the B60 and 432.0 GB/s for the LX MAX.

Compute throughput shows the largest gap. The B60 delivers 12.29 TFLOPS FP32 and 24.58 TFLOPS FP16 (2:1). The LX MAX delivers 24.58 TFLOPS FP32 and 49.15 TFLOPS FP16 (2:1). The LX MAX is exactly 2x the B60 in both metrics.

Pixel rate and texture rate are identical: 192.0 GPixel/s and 384.0 GTexel/s for both cards. This is notable given the LX MAX's larger TMU and ROP counts, suggesting the B60 achieves the same rates with fewer units through higher clock frequencies.

Clock speeds differ significantly. The B60 has a base clock of 2000 MHz and a boost clock of 2400 MHz. The LX MAX has no base or boost clock listed in the database. Memory clocks are 2375 MHz for the B60 and 2250 MHz for the LX MAX.

Power and physical specifications diverge. The B60 has a 200 W TDP with a single 8-pin connector. The LX MAX has a 225 W TDP with a single 16-pin connector. Both list a suggested PSU of 550 W. The B60 is 167 mm long, 69 mm high, and 40 mm wide. The LX MAX is 248 mm long, 118 mm high, and 48 mm wide, making it substantially larger. Both are dual-slot cards.

The B60 uses PCIe 5.0 x8; the LX MAX uses PCIe 4.0 x16. Display outputs are 4x mini-DisplayPort 2.1 for the B60 and 4x DisplayPort 1.4a for the LX MAX. The B60 has a launch MSRP of 499 USD. The LX MAX has no launch MSRP listed.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark results for these two cards. The wins counter shows 0 for both A and B. This means any performance comparison must rely on the Intel Arc Pro B60's measured scores and the Lisuan Tech LX MAX's specification sheet.

For the Intel Arc Pro B60, the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test yields a score of 2646. The PassMark G3D score is 14580, and the GPU compute score is 7029. These are the only modern workload results available. The B60's average benchmark score of 3182 places it in the 20th percentile of all GPUs, with its nearest rival being the NVIDIA Quadro P1000 at 3163 (0.6% lower). The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 SUPER scores 3075, which is 3.5% below the B60. The NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 scores 3210, which is 0.9% higher, and the NVIDIA GeForce 920M scores 3287, which is 3.2% higher.

The Lisuan Tech LX MAX has no benchmark scores to compare directly. Its FP32 throughput of 24.58 TFLOPS is exactly double the B60's 12.29 TFLOPS. If compute throughput translates to performance, the LX MAX would be expected to lead in compute-heavy workloads. However, the B60's higher memory bandwidth (456.0 GB/s versus 432.0 GB/s) and faster memory clock (2375 MHz versus 2250 MHz) could offset some of that advantage in memory-bound tasks.

The B60's 24 GB memory capacity provides a clear advantage for large datasets, while the LX MAX's 12 GB may be a limiting factor in such scenarios. The B60 also supports Vulkan 1.4 versus the LX MAX's Vulkan 1.3, which may matter for applications that use newer Vulkan features.

The B60's measured PassMark results show a wide spread across DirectX versions: 179 for DX9, 122 for DX11, 76 for DX12, and 61 for DX10. This pattern suggests the card performs best in older DirectX workloads. The G2D score of 763 is relatively low compared to the G3D score of 14580, indicating strong 3D performance relative to 2D.

Without recorded benchmarks for the LX MAX, the only definitive statement is that the B60 has measurable results and the LX MAX does not. The specification gap in FP32 compute (2x) and shading units (2.4x) suggests the LX MAX is designed for higher raw throughput, but the database cannot confirm this with performance data. The B60's measured percentile rank of 20 places it in the lower quartile of all GPUs, which is the only empirical performance anchor in this comparison.
