NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 vs Lisuan Tech LX ULTRA Comparison

The Verdict

The data presents an unusual comparison. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 has a full set of recorded benchmark scores, while the Lisuan Tech LX ULTRA has no recorded benchmarks at all. The RTX 5070 sits at the 82nd percentile of all GPUs in the database, with an average benchmark score of 40377. The LX ULTRA holds a 50th percentile position, but its average benchmark score is 0, indicating that no performance measurements exist for it in the database.

Based strictly on available measurements, the RTX 5070 is the only part with verifiable performance data. It shows a lead over its nearest rivals in the database, including a 2% advantage over the NVIDIA RTX A500 Mobile and a 0.8% edge over the AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100. The LX ULTRA cannot be assessed through benchmark results, so any choice between these two cards must rely on architectural and specification differences rather than measured performance.

The RTX 5070 suits users who need a card with proven, database-recorded performance across DirectX 12, OpenCL, and Vulkan workloads. The LX ULTRA appeals to users who prioritize memory capacity and a more recent release date, as it carries 24 GB of GDDR6 memory versus 12 GB of GDDR7 on the RTX 5070. The LX ULTRA also offers a higher FP16 compute rate, but without benchmark confirmation, that specification advantage remains theoretical.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from entirely different design lineages. The RTX 5070 uses the GB205 chip built on NVIDIA's Blackwell 2.0 architecture, fabricated on a 5 nm process at TSMC. It contains 31,100 million transistors on a 263 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 118.3M per mm². The LX ULTRA uses the 7G105 chip with a TrueGPU architecture, built on a 6 nm process, also at TSMC. Its transistor count and die size are listed as unknown in the database.

The memory subsystems diverge significantly. The RTX 5070 uses 12 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 192-bit bus, delivering 672.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The LX ULTRA uses 24 GB of GDDR6 memory on the same 192-bit bus width, but bandwidth drops to 432.0 GB/s. The memory clock differs as well: the RTX 5070 runs at 1750 MHz (28 Gbps effective) while the LX ULTRA runs at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective).

Compute resources show both similarities and differences. Both cards feature 6144 shading units and 192 texture mapping units. The ROP count differs, with the RTX 5070 carrying 80 ROPs and the LX ULTRA carrying 96. The RTX 5070 includes 48 ray tracing cores and 192 tensor cores, while the LX ULTRA lists no ray tracing or tensor core counts in the database.

The FP32 compute rates differ: the RTX 5070 delivers 30.87 TFLOPS, while the LX ULTRA delivers 24.58 TFLOPS. In FP16, the RTX 5070 maintains a 1:1 ratio at 30.87 TFLOPS, whereas the LX ULTRA achieves 49.15 TFLOPS at a 2:1 ratio, effectively doubling its FP16 throughput over FP32. Pixel and texture rates also favor the RTX 5070: 201.0 GPixel/s versus 192.0 GPixel/s, and 482.3 GTexel/s versus 384.0 GTexel/s.

API support is close but not identical. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2) and OpenGL 4.6. The RTX 5070 supports Vulkan 1.4, while the LX ULTRA supports Vulkan 1.3.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark results between these two cards. The wins counter shows 0 for each side, and the head-to-head benchmark array is empty. This absence of comparative measurements means the RTX 5070 cannot be shown to outperform the LX ULTRA in any specific test, nor can the LX ULTRA claim any measured victory over the RTX 5070.

The RTX 5070's own benchmark results, however, provide a reference point. In 3DMark Steel Nomad (DX12), it scores 5077. Geekbench OpenCL yields 172660, and Geekbench Vulkan yields 178923. Passmark results include a G3D score of 29137, a GPU Compute score of 15787, a G2D score of 1305, and DirectX scores of 320 for DX9, 277 for DX11, 180 for DX10, and 108 for DX12.

The average benchmark score for the RTX 5070 is 40377. Its nearest rival in the database, the AMD Radeon Pro 580, scores 40318, placing the RTX 5070 just 0.1% ahead. The AMD Radeon Pro 5300 scores 40870, which is 1.2% higher than the RTX 5070. The AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100 scores 40063, putting the RTX 5070 0.8% ahead. The NVIDIA RTX A500 Mobile scores 39568, with the RTX 5070 leading by 2%.

For the LX ULTRA, no benchmark scores exist. Its average benchmark score is 0, and its nearest rivals list is empty. The database records no measurements for this GPU in any test, so there are no numbers to compare against the RTX 5070's results.

Specification Differences

The two cards differ across multiple specification fields. The process node differs: 5 nm for the RTX 5070 versus 6 nm for the LX ULTRA. The RTX 5070 has a known transistor count of 31,100 million and a die size of 263 mm², while the LX ULTRA lists both as unknown.

Clock specifications are incomplete for both cards. The RTX 5070 lists a base clock of 2325 MHz and a boost clock of 2512 MHz. The LX ULTRA lists no base or boost clocks. Memory clocks differ, with the RTX 5070 at 1750 MHz (28 Gbps effective) and the LX ULTRA at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective).

Memory capacity doubles on the LX ULTRA: 24 GB of GDDR6 versus 12 GB of GDDR7 on the RTX 5070. Bandwidth favors the RTX 5070 at 672.0 GB/s versus 432.0 GB/s. ROP counts differ at 80 versus 96. The RTX 5070 includes ray tracing and tensor cores (48 and 192, respectively); the LX ULTRA lists neither.

Where Each One Wins

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 wins on every measured performance metric in the database. Its FP32 compute of 30.87 TFLOPS exceeds the LX ULTRA's 24.58 TFLOPS. Its texture rate of 482.3 GTexel/s outpaces 384.0 GTexel/s. Its pixel rate of 201.0 GPixel/s edges out 192.0 GPixel/s. Memory bandwidth of 672.0 GB/s versus 432.0 GB/s gives it a clear advantage in bandwidth-sensitive workloads. Its 82nd percentile ranking among all GPUs, supported by an average benchmark score of 40377, stands in contrast to the LX ULTRA's 50th percentile with no recorded score.

The Lisuan Tech LX ULTRA wins on memory capacity and a few structural characteristics. Its 24 GB of GDDR6 doubles the RTX 5070's 12 GB, which suits workloads that require large frame buffers or dataset residency. Its FP16 rate of 49.15 TFLOPS at a 2:1 ratio exceeds the RTX 5070's 30.87 TFLOPS at 1:1, indicating potential advantage in FP16-heavy compute tasks, though no benchmark confirms this. Its 96 ROPs exceed the RTX 5070's 80, and its lower TDP of 225 W versus 250 W suggests lower power draw. The LX ULTRA also lists a later release date of 2026-03-16 compared to the RTX 5070's 2025-03-03.

The RTX 5070 wins in connectivity standards, with PCIe 5.0 x16 versus PCIe 4.0 x16, and DisplayPort 2.1b outputs versus DisplayPort 1.4a. It also supports Vulkan 1.4 over the LX ULTRA's 1.3. For users who rely on ray tracing or tensor acceleration, the RTX 5070 is the only card of the two that lists those cores.

The LX ULTRA's advantages are entirely specification-based, not measurement-based. The database shows no benchmark results for it, so its memory capacity and FP16 throughput remain unverified in practice. The RTX 5070, by contrast, has a complete benchmark profile that places it among the top 82nd percentile of all GPUs. Users seeking verified performance should favor the RTX 5070; users needing maximum memory capacity and willing to accept unmeasured performance may consider the LX ULTRA.
