For our testing, we focused some of the effort on the esports aspect of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 with games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) and Rainbow Six: Siege. We also ran the card through the rest of our standard benchmark regimen, which tests a card's abilities to handle AAA games at the highest possible quality settings, as well as how it rides during synthetic benchmarks that stress the card in a variety of ways. Dual BIOS gives you the choice to prioritize for full performance in GAMING mode or low noise in SILENT mode. RTX 2080 S | TU104-450 | 12nm | 545mm² | 13.6 BT |⠀ 3072 CCs | 192 TMUs | 64 ROPs | ⠀48 SMs | 1815 MHz | 8GB | 1024MB x 8 | GDDR6 | 256-bit | ⠀496 GB/s | 250W While we didn't run any games at 8K for this set of benchmarks, the results show that just getting to 60fps in 4K isn't always possible for the RTX 3090, let alone 8K. That said, what we did see out of the RTX 3090 Suprim impressed us nonetheless. As a top-floor-with-a-view kind of card, the gaming performance of the MSI GeForce RTX 3090 Suprim outpaces any other GPU we've tested to date, and not always by a small margin. In some of the titles we tested, like Red Dead Redemption 2, the RTX 3090 was more than 20% faster than the RTX 3080 Founders Edition in 1440p, though that gain dipped to just 12% in 4K.We can't say how much extra juice MSI has imparted into its RTX 3090 over other models just yet, since Founders Edition RTX 3090 cards were in short supply from Nvidia during the RTX 30 Series launch and PCMag didn't get the opportunity to test one.TORX Fan 4.0: A masterpiece of teamwork, fan blades work in pairs to create unprecedented levels of focused air pressure.

This makes the MSI Geforce RTX 3090 Suprim X 24G the hottest RTX 30 Series card we've tested thus far, though that result is expected, given the added power hiding inside. Though we've been able to pit the RTX 3080 Founders Edition against several third-party RTX 3080 cards since they originally launched in November, right now we have no point of comparison on heat or noise for the RTX 3090 Suprim. That said, for such an intimidating card on the outside, once we had it installed in the rig, it barely made a peep, even during the most intense scenarios.

If there's anywhere the MSI RTX 3090 Suprim X 24G is going to make the case for its high cost, it's here. The 24GB of onboard VRAM sends the RTX 3090 to new heights in these tests, setting records wherever it goes, though perhaps not by the kinds of margins that you might have been expecting given the price.

On the top of the card, I found an NVLink connector, a rare find in the RTX 30 Series these days. Nvidia hasn't completely scrapped the idea of dual-card solutions just yet, and sensibly the company has left the technology as an option only in the RTX 3090 class of cards. Though there are a few games out there that know how to take advantage of two graphics cards linked up through either NVLink or the aging SLI standard, the best usage case for NVLink these days is in productivity and content-creation tasks, which is exactly what the RTX 3090 was designed for. We didn't have another identical RTX 3090 on hand to test the feature, though. RTX 3090s, like every other high-end graphics card in the world right now, aren't easy to come by.

In our ray tracing synthetics, the 3090 Ti beats out the 3090 by a larger margin than that card does against the 3080 Ti, a welcome sight considering the price jump over those already ludicrously expensive GPUs. Add the more mainstream RTX 3080 into comparisons and you can see that the 3090 Ti has about as much of a gap between it and the two next best as those two do over the 3080.Airflow Control: Don't sweat it, Airflow Control guides the air to exactly where it needs to be for maximum cooling.

While striving for the SUperior gaming experience, our PRofound journey across decades took us to destinations previously thought IMpossible. Across years of high-performance circuit design, MSI is proud to bring its latest masterpiece to life. SUPRIM is the next leap in graphic cards design. Fin array is populated by 30 microfins with 0.6mm wide microchannels that provide optimal cooling performance, without unnecessary flow restrictions or clogging hazards.

A new design philosophy takes shape to pave the way for a new prestigious series. Like the RTX 3090, Nvidia also touts the 3090 Ti as a card capable of 8K gaming. While I don’t have an 8K display to test native 8K, I used Nvidia’s Dynamic Super Resolution feature to render at 8K and then downscale to 4K.
