NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GDDR6 vs Lisuan Tech LX MAX Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded database contains a single benchmark entry for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GDDR6: a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 4334.5. The Lisuan Tech LX MAX has no recorded benchmark results, and the head-to-head benchmark table is empty. This makes a direct numerical comparison impossible. Instead, the data allows for an interpretive comparison based on the RTX 4070’s position among its nearest rivals and the LX MAX’s percentile ranking.

The RTX 4070 GDDR6 sits at the 25th percentile among all GPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals, based on average scores, include the Intel Iris Pro Graphics 5200 with an average score of 4360, which is 0.6% higher than the RTX 4070’s 4335 average. The AMD FirePro W2100 scores 4295, which is 0.9% lower. The NVIDIA GeForce 930M scores 4388, 1.2% higher, and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M scores 4282, 1.2% lower. These deltas are small, indicating that the RTX 4070 GDDR6’s measured performance sits within a narrow band of these older or lower-tier parts in this specific test. The data suggests that the Steel Nomad workload, which is a demanding DX12 scene, yields a score that places the RTX 4070 GDDR6 near these particular entries, but the database does not provide a comparison to modern high-end cards.

The Lisuan Tech LX MAX has a percentile ranking of 50 among all GPUs, but its average benchmark score is listed as 0, and no benchmark entries exist. This percentile figure appears to be a placeholder or derived from an unrecorded measurement. Without actual scores, the LX MAX cannot be ranked against the RTX 4070 numerically. The data indicates that the RTX 4070 has at least one confirmed data point, while the LX MAX has none. The wins count is 0 for both cards, confirming no head-to-head victories are recorded.

What the data does show is that the RTX 4070 GDDR6’s single benchmark score, 4334.5, is its only quantitative performance anchor. The nearest rival scores range from 4282 to 4388, meaning the RTX 4070 GDDR6 is within 1.2% of each of these four cards. This tight clustering suggests that, in this particular test, the RTX 4070 GDDR6 delivers performance comparable to a set of GPUs that are not in its class by generation or feature set. The interpretation is that the Steel Nomad result may not reflect the full capability of the RTX 4070 GDDR6, or that the database’s nearest rival list is limited. Either way, the recorded numbers do not support a claim of dominance or deficiency.

For the LX MAX, the absence of any benchmark score means the 50th percentile ranking is unverifiable. The database lists no nearest rivals and no average score. This is a critical gap. The analysis can only state that the LX MAX has no recorded performance data, so any comparison to the RTX 4070 must rely on architectural and specification differences rather than measured results.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs differ fundamentally in their underlying designs. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GDDR6 uses the AD104 chip built on the Ada Lovelace architecture, fabricated on a 5 nm process at TSMC. It contains 35,800 million transistors on a 294 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 121.8 million per square millimeter. The Lisuan Tech LX MAX uses a chip labeled 7G106 with an architecture called TrueGPU, built on a 6 nm process, also at TSMC. Its transistor count and die size are unknown, and no density figure is recorded.

The RTX 4070 GDDR6 has 5888 shading units, 184 texture mapping units, and 64 raster output pipelines. It also includes 46 ray tracing cores and 184 tensor cores. The LX MAX has 6144 shading units, 192 TMUs, and 96 ROPs. It has no recorded ray tracing cores or tensor cores. This means the RTX 4070 GDDR6 carries dedicated hardware for ray tracing and AI acceleration, while the LX MAX’s data does not indicate such units. The LX MAX compensates with a higher count of shading units, TMUs, and ROPs.

Clock speeds also differ. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 has a base clock of 1920 MHz and a boost clock of 2475 MHz. The LX MAX has no recorded base or boost clocks. Memory clocks are specified: the RTX 4070 GDDR6 runs its GDDR6 memory at 2500 MHz, which translates to 20 Gbps effective, while the LX MAX runs at 2250 MHz, or 18 Gbps effective. Both cards use 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 achieves a memory bandwidth of 480.0 GB/s, whereas the LX MAX achieves 432.0 GB/s. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 holds a 48 GB/s bandwidth advantage.

Compute rates show a split. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 delivers 29.15 TFLOPS for FP32 and the same 29.15 TFLOPS for FP16, indicating a 1:1 ratio. The LX MAX delivers 24.58 TFLOPS for FP32 but 49.15 TFLOPS for FP16, a 2:1 ratio. This means the LX MAX has higher half-precision throughput but lower single-precision throughput. Pixel and texture rates also differ: the RTX 4070 GDDR6 has a pixel rate of 158.4 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 455.4 GTexel/s. The LX MAX has a pixel rate of 192.0 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 384.0 GTexel/s. The LX MAX fills pixels faster but samples textures slower.

Power and interface specs are similar. Both cards are dual-slot, use a single 16-pin power connector, and require a 550 W suggested power supply. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 has a TDP of 200 W, while the LX MAX has a TDP of 225 W. Both use PCIe 4.0 x16. Display outputs differ: the RTX 4070 GDDR6 offers one HDMI 2.1 and three DisplayPort 1.4a outputs, while the LX MAX offers four DisplayPort 1.4a outputs and no HDMI. API support shows the RTX 4070 GDDR6 supports Vulkan 1.4, while the LX MAX supports Vulkan 1.3. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2) and OpenGL 4.6.

The LX MAX is physically larger: 248 mm long, 118 mm high, and 48 mm wide, versus the RTX 4070 GDDR6’s 240 mm length, 110 mm height, and 40 mm width. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 is listed as end-of-life, with a release date of 2024-08-19, while the LX MAX is active, with a release date of 2026-03-16. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 has a predecessor in GeForce 30 and a successor in GeForce 50, while the LX MAX has neither recorded.

Where Each One Wins

Based on the recorded specifications, the RTX 4070 GDDR6 wins in several measurable categories. It has a higher FP32 compute rate at 29.15 TFLOPS versus 24.58 TFLOPS, a 4.57 TFLOPS advantage. This matters for workloads that rely on single-precision floating point, such as traditional rasterization and many compute tasks. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 also has higher memory bandwidth at 480.0 GB/s versus 432.0 GB/s, which can benefit texture-heavy scenes or data-intensive shaders. Its texture rate of 455.4 GTexel/s exceeds the LX MAX’s 384.0 GTexel/s, giving it an edge in fill-rate-bound scenarios. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 also includes dedicated ray tracing cores and tensor cores, which the LX MAX does not list, suggesting the RTX 4070 GDDR6 is better suited for ray-traced effects and AI-accelerated features like DLSS.

The RTX 4070 GDDR6 supports Vulkan 1.4, while the LX MAX supports Vulkan 1.3. This newer API version can offer additional features or optimizations. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 also has a lower TDP at 200 W versus 225 W, meaning it draws less power for its recorded compute output. The single benchmark score of 4334.5, while not comparable to the LX MAX due to missing data, at least confirms the RTX 4070 GDDR6 has measurable performance.

The Lisuan Tech LX MAX wins in other areas. It has more shading units (6144 versus 5888), more TMUs (192 versus 184), and more ROPs (96 versus 64). The ROP count difference is substantial: 96 versus 64, a 50% increase. This explains the LX MAX’s higher pixel rate of 192.0 GPixel/s versus 158.4 GPixel/s. For scenes that are pixel-bound, such as high-resolution rendering with heavy overdraw, the LX MAX could deliver faster pixel throughput. The LX MAX also has a higher FP16 rate at 49.15 TFLOPS versus 29.15 TFLOPS, a 19.99 TFLOPS advantage. This is relevant for workloads that use half-precision arithmetic, such as certain machine learning inference or HDR computations. The LX MAX’s 2:1 FP16 ratio indicates it can double its FP32 throughput when using FP16, whereas the RTX 4070 GDDR6 maintains a 1:1 ratio.

The LX MAX also offers four DisplayPort outputs versus one HDMI and three DisplayPort on the RTX 4070 GDDR6. For multi-monitor setups that rely on DisplayPort, the LX MAX provides more direct connections. The LX MAX is physically larger, which may allow for a more substantial cooling solution, though no thermal data is recorded. The LX MAX has a higher TDP, which suggests it can sustain higher power draw, potentially for longer boost durations, but no clock data confirms this.

The data does not show any benchmark wins for either card. The winsA and winsB fields are both 0. The head-to-head benchmark table is empty. Therefore, any performance advantage is inferred from specification differences, not measured results. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 appears stronger in memory bandwidth, FP32 compute, texture rate, and feature set. The LX MAX appears stronger in pixel rate, FP16 compute, and ROP count. The choice between them depends on which workload characteristics matter more.

The Verdict

The recorded data points to a clear specification split. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GDDR6 offers a confirmed benchmark score, a more mature feature set with dedicated ray tracing and tensor cores, higher FP32 throughput, higher memory bandwidth, and a newer Vulkan API. Its lower TDP of 200 W and smaller physical footprint make it a more power-efficient option on paper. The single benchmark score of 4334.5, while narrowly clustered with older integrated and entry-level GPUs in the database, at least provides a verifiable performance anchor.

The Lisuan Tech LX MAX presents a different value profile. It lacks any recorded benchmark scores, which makes its performance unquantified. Its architecture, TrueGPU on a 6 nm process, is distinct from Ada Lovelace. It has more shading units, TMUs, and ROPs, leading to a higher pixel rate. Its FP16 performance is significantly higher, and it offers four DisplayPort outputs. However, without benchmarks, the practical impact of these specifications cannot be measured.

For a user who prioritizes ray tracing, AI features, and confirmed performance data, the RTX 4070 GDDR6 is the only card with evidence of its capabilities. The LX MAX’s higher pixel rate and FP16 throughput suggest it may excel in specific compute or pixel-bound tasks, but the absence of recorded results means those advantages are theoretical. The database does not provide any head-to-head benchmark comparisons, so a definitive performance verdict is impossible. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 is the safer choice based on verifiable data, while the LX MAX remains an unproven but specification-intensive alternative.
