NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER vs Lisuan Tech LX MAX Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER and the Lisuan Tech LX MAX occupy very different positions in the database. The RTX 4080 SUPER has a complete set of measured benchmark results, while the LX MAX currently has no recorded benchmark scores. The database shows the RTX 4080 SUPER with an average benchmark score of 54,209, placing it in the 86th percentile among all GPUs. The LX MAX, by contrast, has an average benchmark score of 0 and sits at the 50th percentile, indicating that no performance data has been captured for it yet.

Because the head-to-head benchmark table is empty, the comparison must rely on the architectural data and the recorded scores of the RTX 4080 SUPER. The RTX 4080 SUPER delivers 52.22 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, while the LX MAX delivers 24.58 TFLOPS. That is a 2.13x advantage for the NVIDIA card in raw single-precision throughput. In FP16, the gap narrows slightly: the RTX 4080 SUPER sustains 52.22 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio, while the LX MAX achieves 49.15 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio. The NVIDIA card still leads, but by a much smaller margin of 6.2%.

Memory bandwidth tells a similar story. The RTX 4080 SUPER offers 736.3 GB/s across a 256-bit bus with GDDR6X memory, while the LX MAX provides 432.0 GB/s across a 192-bit bus with GDDR6. The NVIDIA card has 70.4% more bandwidth. Pixel fill rate favors the RTX 4080 SUPER at 285.6 GPixel/s versus 192.0 GPixel/s, a 48.8% advantage. Texture fill rate shows the largest proportional gap: 816.0 GTexel/s for the RTX 4080 SUPER versus 384.0 GTexel/s for the LX MAX, a 112.5% difference.

The RTX 4080 SUPER also leads in resource counts. It carries 10,240 shading units, 320 TMUs, and 112 ROPs, compared to 6,144 shading units, 192 TMUs, and 96 ROPs on the LX MAX. The NVIDIA card has 66.7% more shading units, 66.7% more TMUs, and 16.7% more ROPs. Ray tracing hardware exists only on the RTX 4080 SUPER, which includes 80 RT cores and 320 tensor cores; the LX MAX lists no RT cores and no tensor cores in the database.

Where Each One Wins

The RTX 4080 SUPER wins every measurable category where data exists. Its recorded benchmark scores include a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 result of 6,600, a Geekbench OpenCL score of 219,065, and a Geekbench Vulkan score of 260,075. Passmark results show 34,245 in G3D, 19,822 in GPU Compute, and legacy DX scores of 193 (DX10), 301 (DX11), 134 (DX12), and 381 (DX9). The G2D score is 1,270.

The LX MAX has no benchmark entries at all, so it cannot claim a single performance win in the database. Its strengths lie entirely in physical and power characteristics. The LX MAX uses a 6 nm process node versus 5 nm for the RTX 4080 SUPER, both fabricated by TSMC. The LX MAX draws 225 W under load, while the RTX 4080 SUPER draws 320 W. That is a 29.7% lower power draw for the LX MAX. The LX MAX also occupies a dual-slot form factor at 248 mm in length, 118 mm in height, and 48 mm in width. The RTX 4080 SUPER is a triple-slot card measuring 310 mm by 140 mm by 61 mm. The LX MAX is 62 mm shorter, 22 mm lower, and 13 mm thinner.

The LX MAX also demands a smaller power supply: 550 W suggested versus 700 W for the RTX 4080 SUPER. Both cards use a single 16-pin power connector. The LX MAX outputs exclusively through four DisplayPort 1.4a connections, while the RTX 4080 SUPER provides one HDMI 2.1 and three DisplayPort 1.4a outputs. The LX MAX is currently marked as Active in production status, whereas the RTX 4080 SUPER is End-of-life. The LX MAX has a release date of March 2026, while the RTX 4080 SUPER launched in January 2024.

The Verdict

The data supports a clear conclusion for anyone choosing between these two cards. The RTX 4080 SUPER is the superior performer in every recorded metric, with more than double the FP32 throughput, 70% more memory bandwidth, and a complete set of benchmark scores that place it in the 86th percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals in the database include the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 with an average score of 54,247 (0.1% higher), the AMD Radeon Pro W5700X at 54,828 (1.1% higher), the AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB at 55,698 (2.7% higher), and the AMD Radeon 8060S at 55,757 (2.8% higher). The RTX 4080 SUPER trails these cards by margins between 0.1% and 2.8%, which places it firmly in the same performance class as its closest competitors.

The LX MAX, with no recorded benchmarks, cannot be positioned against those numbers. The database shows it at the 50th percentile, which is the median baseline, but that ranking is provisional until actual scores are entered. Its architectural specifications suggest it is a lower-power, smaller-footprint alternative, but without measurement data, any performance claim remains unverified.

For users who prioritize raw compute, ray tracing, and memory throughput, the RTX 4080 SUPER is the only choice supported by evidence. For users who prioritize compact dimensions, lower power draw, and a smaller PSU requirement, the LX MAX has the physical advantages, but those advantages come with no performance verification. The RTX 4080 SUPER also carries a launch MSRP of 999 USD, while the LX MAX has no listed launch MSRP.

The verdict is straightforward from the available data: the RTX 4080 SUPER wins on every measured performance axis, while the LX MAX wins on power efficiency, size, and power supply requirements. Neither card can claim an overall victory because the LX MAX lacks the benchmark data needed for a fair comparison.

Architecture Differences

The two cards come from completely different architectural lineages. The RTX 4080 SUPER uses the AD103 chip built on the Ada Lovelace architecture, part of the GeForce 40 generation. It is manufactured on a 5 nm process at TSMC with 45,900 million transistors on a 379 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 121.1 million transistors per mm². The LX MAX uses the 7G106 chip built on the TrueGPU architecture, part of the 7G100 generation. It is manufactured on a 6 nm process at TSMC, but the database records no transistor count, die size, or transistor density for it.

The RTX 4080 SUPER includes dedicated ray tracing hardware with 80 RT cores and 320 tensor cores. The LX MAX lists no RT cores and no tensor cores, indicating that its TrueGPU architecture does not expose these units in the database. The shading unit counts differ substantially: 10,240 for the RTX 4080 SUPER versus 6,144 for the LX MAX. TMU counts are 320 versus 192, and ROP counts are 112 versus 96.

API support shows some overlap. Both cards support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2) and OpenGL 4.6. The RTX 4080 SUPER supports Vulkan 1.4, while the LX MAX supports Vulkan 1.3. The RTX 4080 SUPER uses GDDR6X memory, while the LX MAX uses GDDR6. The memory clock differs as well: 1,438 MHz with 23 Gbps effective for the RTX 4080 SUPER, versus 2,250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective for the LX MAX. The RTX 4080 SUPER achieves higher bandwidth despite a lower memory clock because of its wider 256-bit bus and faster GDDR6X signaling.

FP16 compute ratios differ. The RTX 4080 SUPER maintains a 1:1 FP16 to FP32 ratio, delivering 52.22 TFLOPS in both. The LX MAX uses a 2:1 ratio, delivering 49.15 TFLOPS of FP16 from its 24.58 TFLOPS FP32 base. This indicates the LX MAX has dedicated FP16 throughput that is nearly double its FP32 rate, a design choice that could favor workloads with heavy half-precision math.

Specification Differences

The power characteristics set these cards apart. The RTX 4080 SUPER has a TDP of 320 W and requires a 700 W PSU. The LX MAX has a TDP of 225 W and requires a 550 W PSU. Both use a single 16-pin power connector.

Physical dimensions favor the LX MAX. It measures 248 mm in length, 118 mm in height, and 48 mm in width, with a dual-slot footprint. The RTX 4080 SUPER measures 310 mm by 140 mm by 61 mm, with a triple-slot footprint. The LX MAX is shorter, lower, and thinner, which makes it easier to fit in compact cases.

Display outputs differ. The RTX 4080 SUPER provides one HDMI 2.1 and three DisplayPort 1.4a outputs. The LX MAX provides four DisplayPort 1.4a outputs and no HDMI. Both cards use a PCIe 4.0 x16 bus interface.

Memory specifications show the RTX 4080 SUPER with 16 GB of GDDR6X, a 256-bit bus, and 736.3 GB/s bandwidth. The LX MAX has 12 GB of GDDR6, a 192-bit bus, and 432.0 GB/s bandwidth.
