NVIDIA RTX 3500 Embedded Ada Generation vs Lisuan Tech LX PRO Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data shows no direct benchmark scores for either the NVIDIA RTX 3500 Embedded Ada Generation or the Lisuan Tech LX PRO. Both entries carry an average benchmark score of zero, and the percentile versus all GPUs is identical at the 50th mark. Without measured performance results, any head-to-head comparison must rely on the architectural specifications and compute capabilities listed in the database.

The most significant theoretical advantage belongs to the Lisuan Tech LX PRO in raw compute throughput. Its FP32 rating reaches 24.58 TFLOPS, which is 6.7% higher than the RTX 3500 Embedded Ada Generation's 23.04 TFLOPS. The gap widens dramatically in half-precision work: the LX PRO delivers 49.15 TFLOPS FP16, more than double the RTX 3500's 23.04 TFLOPS. This 2:1 FP16 ratio on the LX PRO indicates a distinct hardware path for mixed-precision workloads, while the RTX 3500's 1:1 FP16 ratio points toward a more conservative design.

Memory capacity splits the two clearly. The LX PRO carries 24 GB of GDDR6, exactly double the RTX 3500's 12 GB. Both use a 192-bit memory bus and deliver identical bandwidth at 432.0 GB/s, with matching memory clocks of 2250 MHz and 18 Gbps effective. The larger frame buffer on the LX PRO does not increase throughput, but it does allow larger datasets and higher-resolution textures to reside locally.

Pixel and texture throughput also favor the LX PRO. Its pixel rate is 192.0 GPixel/s versus 144.0 GPixel/s on the RTX 3500, a 33.3% advantage. Texture rate shows 384.0 GTexel/s against 360.0 GTexel/s, a 6.7% edge. These figures suggest the LX PRO has more headroom for fill-rate-bound scenes, though the RTX 3500 remains competitive in texture work.

The RTX 3500 Embedded Ada Generation counters with dedicated ray tracing and tensor hardware. It lists 40 RT cores and 160 tensor cores, while the LX PRO entry records no RT core or tensor core counts. The RTX 3500 also specifies a base clock of 1725 MHz and a boost clock of 2250 MHz; the LX PRO has no base or boost clock listed, leaving its dynamic frequency behavior undocumented.

Power and physical design differ substantially. The RTX 3500 operates at a 100 W TDP with no power connectors and an IGP slot width, suggesting an embedded or mobile-oriented form factor. The LX PRO draws 225 W, uses a dual-slot cooler, requires a single 16-pin connector, and lists a suggested 550 W power supply. The LX PRO also provides four DisplayPort 1.4a outputs, while the RTX 3500 has no display outputs at all. The LX PRO measures 248 mm in length, 118 mm in height, and 48 mm in width; the RTX 3500 has no dimensions recorded.

Process technology favors the RTX 3500 on density but not on node size alone. The RTX 3500 uses a 5 nm process from TSMC, while the LX PRO uses a 6 nm process, also from TSMC. The RTX 3500 integrates 35,800 million transistors on a 294 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 121.8 million per square millimeter. The LX PRO lists no transistor count, die size, or density figures.

The Verdict

The data supports different purchasing rationales for each card, strictly from recorded specifications. The Lisuan Tech LX PRO is the stronger choice for workloads that demand large memory capacity or high half-precision throughput. Its 24 GB frame buffer doubles the RTX 3500's 12 GB, and its 49.15 TFLOPS FP16 output is more than twice what the RTX 3500 can produce. The LX PRO also delivers higher pixel and texture rates, making it the better fit for rendering tasks that stress fill rate.

The NVIDIA RTX 3500 Embedded Ada Generation is the more complete package for ray-traced or tensor-accelerated workloads. Its 40 RT cores and 160 tensor cores provide dedicated hardware that the LX PRO lacks entirely. The RTX 3500 also carries a significantly lower power envelope at 100 W versus 225 W, and its IGP form factor with no external power connectors suits compact or embedded installations. The lack of display outputs makes it unsuitable for direct video output, but that limitation is irrelevant for compute-oriented deployments.

Neither card has recorded benchmark scores, so the percentile ranking at 50 for both reflects an absence of data rather than measured parity. Users who prioritize raw FP32 or FP16 throughput and memory capacity should select the LX PRO. Users who require ray tracing, tensor operations, or minimal power draw should select the RTX 3500.

Where Each One Wins

Lisuan Tech LX PRO wins on: raw FP32 throughput (24.58 TFLOPS), FP16 throughput (49.15 TFLOPS), memory capacity (24 GB), pixel fill rate (192.0 GPixel/s), texture fill rate (384.0 GTexel/s), and display connectivity (4x DisplayPort 1.4a). The dual-slot cooler and 16-pin power connector indicate a desktop-oriented design that expects a conventional power supply. Its higher TDP of 225 W suggests sustained performance under load is a priority.

NVIDIA RTX 3500 Embedded Ada Generation wins on: ray tracing hardware (40 RT cores), tensor acceleration (160 tensor cores), power efficiency (100 W TDP), and physical integration (IGP slot width, no power connectors). Its 5 nm process node and higher transistor density of 121.8 million per square millimeter indicate a more advanced manufacturing approach. The Vulkan 1.4 API support edges out the LX PRO's Vulkan 1.3. The RTX 3500 also has a documented base and boost clock, providing predictable frequency behavior.

For mixed-precision compute or large-memory workloads, the LX PRO is the clear choice. For ray-traced rendering, neural network inference, or power-constrained embedded deployments, the RTX 3500 holds the advantage. The absence of benchmark scores means these conclusions rest on architectural specifications alone, but the recorded data points in consistent directions.
