Lisuan’s Graphics Chips: A New Challenger Rises?

Lisuan Tech has announced the delivery of its latest G100 series graphics processors to Chinese customers. Until now, Chinese manufacturers couldn’t offer a viable alternative in the consumer segment against AMD Radeon and Nvidia GeForce accelerators, but the Lisuan 7G100 series might change the game. Mass production commenced back in September 2025, and now the first batch of devices is en route to customers. According to ITHome, the initial GPUs will go to corporate clients. Previously, the GPU was showcased as a gaming solution, indicating that consumer versions are only a matter of time.

The most intriguing model in the lineup is the Lisuan 7G106, which the creators claim can compete with Nvidia GeForce RTX 60 series (clearly referring to entry-level models). This GPU is manufactured using a 6-nanometer process and connects via a 192-bit bus with 12 GB of GDDR6 memory. The Lisuan 7G106-based accelerator supports the PCIe 4.0 x16 interface and has a power consumption of 225 watts. The Lisuan device supports the proprietary NRSS upscaler, akin to Nvidia DLSS and AMD FSR technologies. Lisuan G100 may become the first discrete graphics card in the world with Windows on Arm initiative support. This means that ARM-based computers can utilize the G100 graphics for gaming and work. Neither Nvidia nor AMD has yet presented similar solutions. Previously conducted tests show that the Lisuan 7G106 provides performance on par with mid-budget Nvidia and AMD accelerators.

In the context of potential market disruption, Lisuan’s partnership with the Windows on Arm initiative could pose a significant challenge to Nvidia and AMD, as these GPUs could tap into a growing market of ARM PCs. Concurrently, while the NRSS upscaling technology offered by Lisuan allows it to stand against Nvidia’s and AMD’s established solutions, its true impact will depend on real-world performance and user adaptability.
