Chinese GPU maker Glenfly Tech Co., Ltd. has released an official product page outlining the features and specifications of the Glenfly Arise GT-10C0 graphics card. According to the information, it is the first product equipped with a GPU developed and designed by Glenfly. Like the older Nvidia GeForce GTX750Ti or AMD Radeon Vega 8 iGPU, it’s not as powerful as the FP32 TFLOPS number is 1.5.
It’s good to see the official product page available in the wake of fragmentary pieces of information and images on Chinese social media. However, some of the key specifications and actual performance indicators remain elusive.
The Arise GT-10C0 competes in this category with discrete graphics card minnows such as the Intel Arc A380, AMD Radeon RX 6400 and Nvidia GeForce GTX 1630.
The closest competitor to the Glenfly card is Nvidia, given the FP32 performance statistics. According to this same metric, China’s 28nm GPU is similar to the old GTX750Ti or AMD Vega 8 integrated graphics. Little is known about the GPU architecture that underlies China’s GPUs, and basic specifications such as the number of GPU cores and clocks are not shared. However, it’s not very clear at this point to share these specifications, as there is no Glenfly Arise reference point that has been thoroughly independently tested as the basis for extrapolation.

Last month I saw some Geekbench tests on what was reported to be the Glenfly Arise 1020 GPU. It’s not easy to tell if it’s a false alarm from Geekbench on the Arise GT-10C0 or something else. However, it comes with 2GB of VRAM so that you can see that it is an option for the Arise GT-10C0. In addition, the Geekbench OpenCL Benchmark Score shows that the Arise 1020’s performance can be even worse than the 10C0 if the same GPU’s performance is very tight due to driver / software and similar maturity issues. ..
In summary, the new information is encouraging as it indicates that the first Glenfly Arise desktop graphics card is ready for launch. In the coming weeks, fingers crossed for informative third-party comparative reviews published on Chinese tech sites, forums, or video sharing sites like Bilibili.
