Analysis: NVIDIA N1X 48SM vs Lisuan Tech LX 7G100
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The recorded data contains no direct head-to-head benchmark results for these two parts. Both entries show empty benchmark arrays, zero wins for either side, and identical percentile rankings at the 50th percentile against all GPUs. The average benchmark score for both is zero, meaning neither has any measured performance data recorded in the database yet.
Without direct comparative scores, the analysis must rely on the architectural specifications and theoretical compute figures provided. The FP32 throughput tells a clear story: NVIDIA N1X 48SM delivers 28.83 TFLOPS, while the Lisuan Tech LX 7G100 produces 24.58 TFLOPS. That puts the NVIDIA part roughly 17% ahead in single-precision floating-point work. In FP16, the situation reverses dramatically. The Lisuan Tech part outputs 49.15 TFLOPS through a 2:1 FP16-to-FP32 ratio, while the NVIDIA part manages 28.83 TFLOPS at a 1:1 ratio. The LX 7G100 is approximately 70% ahead in half-precision throughput.
Memory bandwidth also favors the Lisuan Tech card. The LX 7G100 has 432.0 GB/s of bandwidth across a 192-bit bus, while the N1X 48SM has 273.2 GB/s over a 256-bit interface. That is a 58% bandwidth advantage for the Lisuan Tech part, which matters for texture-heavy workloads and large dataset streaming. The NVIDIA part counters with a larger memory pool at 128 GB versus 12 GB.
Pixel throughput favors the LX 7G100 at 192.0 GPixel/s versus 112.6 GPixel/s for the N1X 48SM, a 70% advantage in fill-rate-limited scenarios. Texture rate favors the NVIDIA part: 900.9 GTexel/s versus 384.0 GTexel/s, a 135% lead. These are the biggest wins each way in the recorded specifications.
Architecture Differences
The two chips come from entirely different design philosophies. NVIDIA N1X 48SM uses the Blackwell 2.0 architecture built on TSMC's 5 nm process, with the GB20B chip. The Lisuan Tech LX 7G100 uses the TrueGPU architecture on TSMC's 6 nm process, with the 7G106 chip. Both use TSMC as the foundry, but the NVIDIA part enjoys a smaller process node.
The NVIDIA chip has a die size of 382 mm², while the Lisuan Tech die size is listed as unknown. Transistor counts are unknown for both. Clock behavior differs substantially. The N1X 48SM has a base clock of 741 MHz and a boost clock of 2346 MHz. The LX 7G100 has no recorded base or boost clock, only a memory clock of 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective data rate. The NVIDIA part's memory runs at 1067 MHz with 8.5 Gbps effective.
Shading unit counts are identical at 6144 for both parts. The similarity ends there. NVIDIA uses 384 texture mapping units and 48 ROPs, while Lisuan Tech uses 192 TMUs and 96 ROPs. The NVIDIA part has 48 ray tracing cores and 192 tensor cores; the Lisuan Tech part has no recorded ray tracing cores or tensor cores. This means the LX 7G100 likely lacks dedicated hardware for ray tracing and AI acceleration, relying on the TrueGPU architecture's general-purpose compute instead.
API support differs completely. NVIDIA lists DirectX, OpenGL, and Vulkan as N/A, suggesting this is an integrated graphics processor without traditional graphics API support in the recorded data. The Lisuan Tech part supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.3, making it a fully featured discrete graphics card. The N1X 48SM is an IGP with a single HDMI output, while the LX 7G100 is a dual-slot card with four DisplayPort 1.4a outputs.
Power delivery separates them further. The NVIDIA part has no power connectors and unknown TDP, consistent with an integrated solution. The Lisuan Tech card draws 225 W, requires one 8-pin power connector, and recommends a 550 W power supply. The bus interface differs: PCIe 5.0 x16 for NVIDIA versus PCIe 4.0 x16 for Lisuan Tech.
The Verdict
The data shows two fundamentally different products. The NVIDIA N1X 48SM is an integrated GPU with massive memory capacity, high texture throughput, and tensor core support. The Lisuan Tech LX 7G100 is a discrete, dual-slot graphics card with full API support, higher memory bandwidth, and superior pixel fill rate.
For general-purpose FP32 compute and texture-heavy workloads, the NVIDIA part leads with 28.83 TFLOPS and 900.9 GTexel/s. Its 128 GB memory pool is extraordinary for an IGP, enabling workloads that simply cannot fit on 12 GB. The tensor cores provide dedicated AI acceleration hardware that the Lisuan Tech card lacks entirely.
For traditional graphics workloads, the Lisuan Tech card is the only viable option. It supports DirectX 12 Ultimate, OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.3, while the NVIDIA part lists these as N/A. The 12 GB GDDR6 memory with 432.0 GB/s bandwidth exceeds the NVIDIA part's bandwidth by 58%. The 192.0 GPixel/s pixel rate is 70% higher, and the 96 ROPs double the NVIDIA part's 48. The dual-slot form factor with four DisplayPort outputs makes it a practical discrete GPU for multi-monitor setups.
The FP16 advantage of the Lisuan Tech part, 49.15 TFLOPS versus 28.83 TFLOPS, suggests it handles half-precision workloads substantially better, likely through the 2:1 ratio architecture. The NVIDIA part's 1:1 ratio caps its FP16 throughput at the same level as FP32.

Where Each One Wins
The NVIDIA N1X 48SM wins in FP32 compute, texture processing, memory capacity, and AI acceleration. Its 28.83 TFLOPS FP32 output exceeds the LX 7G100 by roughly 4.25 TFLOPS. The 900.9 GTexel/s texture rate more than doubles the competitor's 384.0 GTexel/s, making it stronger for texel-intensive operations. The 128 GB memory pool is over ten times larger than the 12 GB on the Lisuan Tech card, enabling datasets that would not fit in the smaller frame buffer. The 192 tensor cores provide dedicated hardware for machine learning workloads, something the LX 7G100 lacks entirely. The 48 ray tracing cores also give it hardware acceleration for ray-traced effects, though the N/A API support may limit practical use.
The Lisuan Tech LX 7G100 wins in FP16 compute, memory bandwidth, pixel fill rate, API compatibility, and display connectivity. Its 49.15 TFLOPS FP16 output is 70% higher than the NVIDIA part's 28.83 TFLOPS, making it substantially faster for half-precision workloads. The 432.0 GB/s memory bandwidth exceeds the N1X 48SM by 158.8 GB/s, which benefits data-heavy rendering and compute tasks. The 192.0 GPixel/s pixel rate and 96 ROPs give it a 79.4 GPixel/s advantage in fill-rate-limited scenarios. Full support for DirectX 12 Ultimate, OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.3 makes it a functional graphics card for gaming and professional applications, while the NVIDIA part's N/A API support indicates it cannot serve those roles. Four DisplayPort 1.4a outputs support multi-monitor configurations, versus the single HDMI output on the NVIDIA part.
