STRENGTH AND ARTISTRYMSI envisioned the GAMING series as the favored graphic cards solution for all sorts of gamers, including adventure seekers, esport competitors, livestream broadcasters, and more. GAMING reflects both the spirit of gamers and the intense performance within the cards with a styled exterior that erupts with colorful lights between bold lines and edges.
TRI FROZR 3 THERMAL DESIGNStay cool and quiet. MSI’s TRI FROZR 3 thermal design enhances heat dissipation all around the graphics card.
TORX FAN 5.0TORX FAN 5.0 is a culmination of fan design improvements to increase the air pressure and flow into the heatsink. Ring arcs link three sets of fan blades that tilt 22 degrees together to maintain high-pressure airflow even at slower rotational speeds. The resulting increased airflow is +23% compared to an axial fan.
TORX FAN 5.0A fan cowl extends a bit beyond the general enclosure to lengthen the wind’s passageway, allowing airflow to stabilize and move smoother through the fans. Bulging notches under the cowl help to reduce recirculation, thus further improving airflow stability and reducing some noise.
COPPER BASEPLATEFACING THE HEAT HEAD-ONHeat from the GPU and memory modules is immediately captured by a solid nickel-plated copper baseplate and then rapidly transferred to an array of heat pipes. This widening of the thermal transfer systems with highly efficient mechanisms improves overall efficiency.
KEEPING THE CORE COOLCore Pipes are precision-crafted to make maximum use of the available space. A squared section of heat pipes fully touch the GPU baseplate and spread the heat along the full length of the heatsink.
Airflow Control improves airflow dynamics through the Wave Curved 2.0, updated deflectors, and Air Antegrade fin design for optimizing the balance between cooling and quieter acoustics.
AIR ANTEGRADE FINFins with a V-shaped cutout are located at the airflow passthrough to improve flow efficiency. Optimizing the inclination angle and increasing the wave notch shapes the air resistance towards the center, pushing out warm air faster like a nozzle.
High-Efficiency Carbonyl Inductors (HCI)Manufacturing and material improvements to our choke parts have culminated as High-Efficiency Carbonyl Inductors (HCI.) One-piece molding allows this design to operate with less choke noise and better electrical filtering.
DrMosDrMOS power stage solutions provide great efficiency with low power loss and enhanced voltage controls.
Change Focus When NeededDual BIOS gives you the choice to prioritize full performance in GAMING mode or low noise in SILENT mode.
Effective Thermal PaddingAn abundance of clay-based thermal pads provide additional heat dissipation for board components.
Hardened DefensesAdditional fuses built into the custom PCB provide additional safeguards against electrical damage.
RELENTLESS DEFENSEA die-cast anti-bending plate reinforces the whole card while thermal pads allow cooling to reach critical component underneath.
YOUR SUPPORT CHARACTERA bundled support bracket can be attached to your PC case for additional graphics card reinforcement.
