Lisuan G100 Brings China a True 6 nm Gaming GPU Debut

Łukasz Grochal

Chinese company Lisuan Technology has finally brought its G100 graphics cards into commercial production, giving China a genuinely homegrown gaming‑class GPU architecture instead of another rebadged low‑end chip. Built on 6 nm TrueGPU silicon, the gaming‑focused 7G106 model pairs 48 compute units with up to 2.0 GHz clocks, 12 GB of GDDR6 on a 192‑bit bus and support for modern APIs like DirectX 12 plus Lisuan’s own NSRR upscaling.

Early engineering samples looked weak and tested closer to an old GeForce GTX 660 Ti, but newer OpenCL results for a refined 48‑CU version show the card roughly matching or beating Nvidia’s RTX 4060 and Intel’s Arc A770, while staying just behind an RTX 5060 in compute‑oriented workloads. That does not automatically translate into equal gaming performance, and there are still no broad, independent reviews, so expectations should stay realistic.

Even so, Lisuan G100 marks a major first step for China: a domestic 6 nm GPU that can at least brush up against modern midrange cards, hinting at future generations that could become real competition for Nvidia and AMD if drivers, software and manufacturing continue to improve.

In China, it retails for approximately $150–$200 (1100–1500 CNY), making it competitively priced against Nvidia/AMD mid-range cards. Shipping has begun.
