So this is going to cause a bit of a panic so one of two things will happen:

1. Nvidia, AMD and Intel all massively cut the prices of their GPUs to try to make it so Lisuan can't compete
2. Nvidia, AMD and Intel give Donald Trump a big bag of money and demand they ban Lisuan GPUs from being used anywhere in western supply chains.

My money is on number 2.

I smell a lucrative black market brewing...

God, it's nice to see the software stack finally catching up to the hardware capabilities. Putting the chips on the board is way, way easier than making that board stable and man do we need another company to be able to actually be able to do that.

Gross

Matrox is out of the WHQL game? Had a great time with my G200 and Red Hat Linux back then.

1. Nvidia, AMD and Intel give Donald Trump a big bag of money and demand they ban Lisuan GPUs from being used anywhere in western supply chains.

In the current climate, it doesn't seem like he'd have the power to ban it anywhere but the US

Free bad press in response to new tariff threats !

Matrox haven't made GPUs for a long time, they just make specialised cards with someone else's GPU on them. They're doing more than a board partner would, so need separate drivers, but the title says GPU maker, which they aren't.

Neither of these will happen because the little available data online indicates that it a) sucks in comparison to other GPUs and b) will likely not even be sold outside of China.
They are using TSMC's 6nm for manufacture because they can't use anything more modern due to sanctions.

Until the West stops restricting lithography machines, or China develops their own advanced lithography machines, we likely won't see Chinese GPUs for sale in our markets.

I'm personally hoping China has a breakthrough on lithography machines to break ASML's monopoly and fuck over all these extremely rich companies, but we're not going to see anything like that happen for 10 plus years.

But in 10 years, oh boy, we're gonna have so much cheaper China tech, it'll be awesome.

Honestly, Microsoft's approval means less now than it ever has, so the poor performance aside it doesn't really matter.

The LX 7G100 is comparable to the 4060, I am running a 5700 XT, if the price on the LX 7100 is good I would be tempted to jump on it.
Just because they're forced to use old technology standards, doesn't mean it's bad tech.

Leeenooox drivers!?

ha, that is metaphoric and literal
