MSI GeForce RTX 30 Series Unveiled

MSI has unveiled two custom GeForce RTX 30 Series GPUs: GAMING TRIO and VENTUS. In this article, we are providing an overview on the two model lines as well as special features applied by MSI.

Overview of MSI GeForce RTX 30 Series GPUs

MSI introduces two model lines for the new NVIDIA Ampere architecture:

GAMING TRIO

MSI GeForce RTX 30 Series

MSI refreshes the GAMING TRIO GPU model line for GeForce RTX 30 series by changing the overall look; while maintaining its balance of performance, cooling and low-noise. Included in the updated model lineup is the new TORX Fan 4.0 design that has its pairs of fan blades bound with an outer link. This creates a rim that focuses airflow into the updated TRI FROZR 2 cooling system.

For its back-plate, a matte-black finish color provides a sleek look. While the back-plate itself reinforces the graphics card, and acts as a passive cooler.

Mystic Light provides lighting to the graphics card. Through Mystic Light Sync; connects the graphics card with other components through Dragon Center utility software.

VENTUS

MSI GeForce RTX 30 Series

The popular VENTUS graphics card line is back and bigger than ever. It is enhanced with TORX Fan 3.0 and available in triple and dual fan variants. VENTUS’ performance-focused design maintains the essential aspects of the graphics card to accomplish any task at hand. These include a robust cooling system, a reinforcing back-plate in brushed-finish, and a rigid industrial aesthetic. This makes the graphic card suitable for any build.
