Strength and Artistry
MSI envisioned the GAMING series as the favoured 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 colourful lights between bold lines and edges.
Tri Frozr 3 Thermal Design
Stay cool and quiet. MSI’s TRI FROZR 3 thermal design enhances heat dissipation all around the graphics card.
Torx Fan 5.0
- TORX 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.
- A 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 Baseplate
Facing the Heat Head-On
Heat 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.
Core Pipe
Keeping the Core Cool
Core 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
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 Fin
Fins 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 centre, pushing out warm air faster like a nozzle.
Don’t Sweat the Details
Backplate
Metal Backplate
Thermal pads under the sturdy metal backplate provide additional cooling while the fow-through ventilation reduces trapped heat
Ball Bearing
Double Ball Bearing
Two sets of durable ball bearings spin the TORX FANS for years of intense and lengthy gaming sessions.
Zero Frozr
- The fans completely stop when temperatures are relatively low, eliminating all noise when active cooling is not needed.
- The fans will automatically start spinning again when the heat is on during gaming.
Hardening Every Detail
High-Efficiency Carbonyl Inductors (HCI)
Manufacturing and material improvements to our choke parts have culminated as High-Efficiency Carbonyl Inductors (HCI.) One-piece moulding allows this design to operate with less choke noise and better electrical filtering.
SPS
Highly efficient Smart Power Stages (SPS) allow for accurate current regulation with lower resistance. The result is less power loss and less heat produced from the power layout.
Change Focus When Needed
Dual BIOS gives you the choice to prioritize full performance in GAMING mode or low noise in SILENT mode.
Effective Thermal Padding
An abundance of clay-based thermal pads provide additional heat dissipation for board components.
Hardened Defences
Additional fuses built into the custom PCB provide additional safeguards against electrical damage.
Relentless Defence
A die-cast anti-bending plate reinforces the whole card while thermal pads allow cooling to reach critical component underneath.
Your Support Character
A bundled support bracket can be attached to your PC case for additional graphics card reinforcement.
