presumably already has its first 6 -nm GPU for full games China

In China there are dozens of GPU designers for games and artificial intelligence (AI). The Chinese government has supported the proliferation of these companies with Very juicy subsidies in answer to US sanctions. Huawei, Metax, Biren Technology, Moore ThreadsInnosilicon, Zhaoxin, Iluvatar Corex, Deglinai or Vast Ai Tech are some of the most important, but there are more. Many more. And among all of them, it has just attracted the attention of the semiconductor industry: Lisuan Technology.

This emerging company was born in 2021, in the same breeding ground triggered by The conflict held by the US and China which has also resulted in the constitution of other best -known graphic hardware companies, such as Moore Threads or Biren Technology. Although, as we have just seen, it is a very young firm, it is supported by veteran engineers who have developed a good part of their professional career in the US. It is exactly the same that happens with Moore Threads or Bire Technology, who tell in their ranks with former Nvidia employees.

Lisuan has announced that it has a GPU as powerful as the GeForce RTX 4060

This week this company has revealed In your Wechat account Something important: it already has a GPU for games as powerful as the GeForce RTX 4060 of Nvidia. This is what Lisuan says, so the most prudent is that we collect it with reservations. When this graphic hardware is finally available we will check if this statement is reliable or not. However, this is not all. The most relevant thing is that this company ensures that this GPU, which it has baptized as G100, is the first manufactured entirely in China using 6 Nm integration technology.

Lisuan has not confirmed which Chinese manufacturer of semiconductors is producing this chip, but in all likelihood it is about SMIC (Semiconductor manufacturing international corp), The largest Chinese manufacturer of integrated circuits. This company You are already manufacturing in its 6 Nm nodes THE GPU FOR IA Ascend 920 From Huawei, so it is perfectly credible that this chip for Lisuan Technology produces in those same nodes.

To manufacture integrated 6 and 7 nm circuits using equipment deep ultraviolet photolithography (UVP) of the Dutch company ASML SMIC uses a technique known as Multiple patterning. This strategy consists in transferring the pattern to the wafer in several passes with the purpose of increasing the resolution of the lithographic process. It works, but is responsible for the performance by wafer Be clearly improvable.

In any case, Lisuan has revealed some more data about its G100 GPU. Apparently this graphic processor will work side by side with a generous vram memory map (it is only a conjecture, but it will possibly be 16 GB), will have moderate energy consumption And it will be compatible with the API Directx 12, Vulkan 1.3, OpenGL 4.6 and OpenGL 3.0, so it should be able to deal with current video games without problem as long as their controllers are up to it. Whatever the first graphics cards equipped with this GPU will be available during the third quarter of this year, although it is likely that large -scale manufacturing arrives at the beginning of 2026.
